Happiness and love; two emotions that you allow me feel,
And by tending to our flower, your true feelings will show and I will believe it to be real.
I wish not to ***** you with the thorns that envelop and protect it and me,
Because you are sweeter than the precious nectar that is created by a honey bee.

The petals of our flower will burst into bloom with sunshine and rain,
But we must remember to protect it dearly, through harsh weather and life’s pain.
We are two gardeners, working together to nourish and cherish this beautiful flora,
And have to remind ourselves to stop and enjoy the magnificence that is within its aura.

Do not rush, for it takes many moons for our flower to grow,
We must give it the nutrients it needs, even through the soil down below.
Its roots are intricate, and like a heart’s arteries, it pumps to sustain,
With life-long willingness and genuine curiosity to  be a part of this world, again and again.

I hope that you continue expressing admiration for the grace and beauty in our rose,
For it feels blessed to have your support and adores every part of you, from your head to your toe.
Push past society’s views on beauty and what it means to love someone,
You and I define those things ourselves, it is not dictated by just anyone.

Let us continue to encourage our flower to grow and blossom,
I know that, just like you, it will be amazing and awesome!
**Our Flower (By Him)**
I was foolish to have thought, so carelessly of this precious flower.
I can only stare at this screen and feel silly, and maybe a wee bit dour.
This passion and energetic energy that filled my heart, blinded me to the truth.
It demanded the flower grow larger and faster, but it certainly doesn't take a sleuth,
to know that flowers don't work this way, and neither do relationships.
That these things take time, a truth I learned thanks to the gentle words passing from your lips.
You have spoken of gradual adoration, and I hope by holding your hand in mine,
that we will make this flower bloom together, into something wondrous and fine.
I will spend each hour of every day, ensuring it receives absolutely tender care,
for this flower of ours is very precious to me, for it is something truly rare.
So, I will wait as long as need be, and tend to each petal as my dearest duty,
for I know this journey won't be too hard, being in the presence of such a wonderful beauty.
Lastly, I understand the trepidations that you hold, of breaking my heart or fracturing your own.
Rest assured for I want you to know, that my love for you is set in stone.
