Mine

From the minute I saw him
I knew he was meant to be mine
Even I could figure it out
And I was definitely no Stein
His chocolate eyes landed on me
And he smiled a toothy grin
I melted immediately
He would get away with anythin’
His creamy smooth skin
His bubbling laugh
The light in his eyes
Could melt an evil’s iced heart
As I hug him to me closer
As he’ll leave me someday, maybe
But I’ll love him till then
My darling little baby
