[ WP ] Valentine 's Day is coming up . Write a poem to your significant other/romantic interest .

*Ricochet* 
 
 Your heart is a pinball 
 
 weathered by time and rust. 
 
 My hands are the levers 
 
 flinging you back into motion. 
 
 You have been pitted against mountains 
 
 and ledges and God knows what else. 
 
 I have stood behind you 
 
 waiting to catch you when you falter. 
 
 And when you do stumble, 
 
 I am there to push you back. 
 
 You are a ball of steel 
 
 and nothing will get in your way. 
 
 Even though you may score, 
 
 I know some victories do not matter. 
 
 You are tired and hungry and weakened 
 
 and I want nothing more than game over. 
 
 But I am destined to push you 
 
 until the clock reaches zero. 
 
 You have a mission 
 
 and I am not one to hinder you. 
 
 And when the lights flash 
 
 I will cradle you once more. 
 
 When the bells ring 
 
 I will take you home.
