The Romantic

Make love to my mind

Before you touch my body

Feed my senses

With intimate words

Recite poetry into my ears

While your fingers play with my hair

Romance me in libraries

Woo me in museums

Gift me books by classic authors

Just to see the joy light my face

Read with me by firelight

Wipe away my tears

When my favorite characters die

Regale me with the tales

Of your heroic quests for knowledge

Oh scholarly warrior!

Oh brilliant suitor!

Make love to my mind

Before you touch my body

And you’ll win my heart

For all time
