It is Valentine’s week!

You will be showered with poetry all throughout this week to feel the good vibes.

Pancakes

By: Lauren Wetzel

I could melt into you
Like how butter melts into a soft pancake
Seeping into your goodness,
My syrup pours over you
Like a river
Drenching you in my love

Butterflies

By: Lauren Wetzel

Your voice makes the butterflies
In my stomach dance.
My heart palpitating
To the beat of your song

Let Go

What do I do,
When I’m still in love with you?
You walked away,
‘Cause you didn’t want to stay.

When I say I love you, please believe it’s true.
When I say forever, know I’ll never leave you.
When I say goodbye, promise me you won’t cry,
Because the day I’ll be saying that will be the day I die.

Our Love

L is for ‘laughter’ we had along the way.
O is for ‘optimism’ you gave me every day.
V is for ‘value’ of being my best friend.
E is for ‘eternity,’ a love that has no end.

Heart In My Hands

If you said you were cold
I would wrap my arms around you.
If you said you were thirsty I would give you the ocean blue.
I would give you anything: the moon, the stars, the sunset too.
