It was my girlfriend's birthday,
and I forgot about her gift.
I was worried she'd find out,
with punishment that's swift.

When I heard the door bell,
my sweat combined with stress.
Her reaction and disappointment,
I tried not to think nor guess.

It was way too late to drive,
to the flower shop or store.
I wished her happy birthday,
as I opened the front door.

I told her to sit down,
and simply just relax.
While thinking of a plan,
my brain was at its max.

Said I'll be right back,
as I ran into my room.
Quickly went online,
hoping to avoid my doom.

I ordered that weird looking,
purple and black purse.
Printed out a birthday card,
and added a sweet verse.

Gave her the freshly printed card,
with a hug and a long nice kiss.
She was more than happy,
I knew she was in bliss.

 

I tried my best to explain,
the purse will be a bit late.
She said that it's alright,
she doesn't mind to wait.

As I smiled in relief,
I woke up from this dream.
Realized it's her birthday,
and began to run and scream.

Here I am, two years later, on a subject already treated with a lot of irony (A chronicle about Valentine's day). For this Valentine's Day, I will abandon my devil clothes and put on my angel costume. So, I can deliver a piece of advices. Guys, if you're looking for inspiration, think about this. Where would you be without your girlfriend? Have you ever tried sharing feelings with your buddies? They just don't get it, and they would laugh at you anyway. Be thankful that you have someone that you can be vulnerable with. Having a woman in your life is a gift. Your bodies fit together because your souls fit together and you're meant to be together. Say thank you to your girlfriend. Tell her how grateful you are that she’s in your life. May these following words and verses inspire you for a long time:
