As I hold your beating heart in my bare hands,
I admire what you have sacrificed for our relationship.
You, with a hole in your chest,
And me, with blood on my hands.
You gave your life,
Just so I can have your heart.
The love you have for me is endless.
I glance over at the watch on your wrist.
12:01 A.M. February 14th, 2022
And you did it just in time for Valentine’s Day.
I cannot thank you enough.
This is the perfect gift.
The Paramour
