It is a delight
of his heart, that thumps
to the rhythm of love
like the beating of drums,
to reminisce
on how
tempests were
conquered,
with a love
that grows
and patience
he has mustered.
Through time
he has collected
a kiss from an angel above,
a picture of
bliss,
a doodle of love,
a cute party hat,
a group of friends,
passes to free rides,
tickets to youth trends.
These
memories, they linger
and put a
smile on his face;
he chose to
keep them stored away
inside a box of keepsakes.

You are one of the sweetest boyfriends any man can ever have.
Whenever I feel rejected by this world, I return to my own box of keepsakes and I will be fine in no time.
