He bought her a rose
It died in her hand
He baked her banana cake
Anaphylaxis kicked in
He gave her a puppy
It peed on her skirt
He took her skating
Her head took eight stitches
He threw a pebble at her window
It shattered the glass
He tinkered with her engine
It blew the next day
He built her a fire
But the flames wouldn’t catch
He wore uniforms to bed
She preferred reading instead
He took her to Neverland
She’d been there before
He fell asleep on her lap
And proceeded to snore
He introduced her to his parents
She was sick off the wine
He tickled her toes
She kicked out his teeth
They grew old together
And romanced forever
