Surviving Valentines


Surviving Valentines

I wake to the sound of the postmans clatter
as he delivers my fate
as I chime and I chatter to sound out the natter of
waking thoughts, eeking me out of my senses
my fate is before me: an empty fortune cookie
the whirring of senseless defences that cry out
to me -'You're not getting anything this year'
-But why​?
''You're not worth it” they say.

So he says all he needed to say by his silence..

But which silence is worse?That of knowing you're loved but not in the right way? Or of not being able to love yourself?
This valentine's sure to kill me,
Even the dead can send messages

The pain of losing lost valentines
gone, but not forgotten
longed for but not begotten

But who'll deprive me survive me this Valentines Day?
Who'll survive me?
That is the question..
