My love, my Dame

My infinite scintillating flame

I vow to be your loyal swain

For now I become yours

Till the end of my days

I testify, my soul, my lady

My sweet innocent maiden

My perpetual captor

My fire shall neither cease nor falter

deeper and vaster grows ablaze

my humble heart longs to contain

I resign my being for you, my love

Hold it within your pristine heart

The one place to embrace

The cascade surging through my veins.

I pledge myself to you, my love

My life is no longer my own

My afterlife is unknown

If I'm fortunate

If I'm adequate

If I'm to be heaven

I'll plead for my home

Your eyes are my home

Your breath is my air

Your voice is my song

Your arms are my shrine

Your heart is my altar

Your smile is my prayer

Your hand is my prize

I ache to call you mine

I need you in every way

My rib is not in place

My certain heart calls you

My present and future

My solace

My first and last

My onliest love

My other self

my life

My queen

my wife

'I love you' is not enough

****

A/N

That was My first poem ever!

I was trying to be in Akram's perspective (my favorite fictional son!) He's a romantic and highly sensitive character who is in love, obviously. And I didn't know how to write poetry or whether or not to call this a poem. I let him splatter his feelings all over the page and hoped that will help inspire me to continue writing my story (Melody). Little did I know, it inspired more poems and the ball started rolling from there. XD

Of course, readers started calling me Akram and thinking I was the one writing those poems! How odd! 🤔😂
