Chocolate Words by Serena Axel (ebook voice reader .TXT) 📕

This night when I came home
Two roses lay on my nightstand.

Did they represent us?
You and I? Intertwined?
Were they a symbol of our love?

You are a romantic...
How did I fail to know this?
Did you ever tell me
With words of chocolate and orange?
The spider crawling across us?

Oh, I am thrilled at last
To find this out.
Years spent in anger,
Lodged between us like
An iron fence;
Belief that our chance had fled.

And now...
I want to live in love with you.
