A Hallmark Moment
Crafting the perfect card for an occasion.
Radiant— describes your glow, affecting everything in sight
Your smile— infectious, lifting moods to new heights
Your attention— A goldmine for this grateful soul
But it's in those brown eyes where I lose control...
Can't wait any longer, I've something to say
Will you marry me on this Valentine's Day?

The Grace of Reciprocity
The only unspoken understanding now is this: if you ignore me, I absolutely won't bother you. This isn't about being competitive or indifferent; it's about acknowledging the most basic truth of adulthood: relationships must be mutual, not sustained by stubbornness.
