Can I say you will be loved by me,
You must be playfully tortured by me,
You will always be the reason for my smile,
You will be kissed even more than plenty of times,
There will be times when you will catch me hugging you from behind
You will be irritated by me in the most beautiful ways of crime
Your loyalty will always be reciprocated with open heart of mine
You will be pampered with sarcasm unlikely to the times, when you were not mine
There's no running away, it is going to be forever this time.
