A Letter per Day (14 Away)
If one should write
A statement to love
Of how unjust it be
Why does it seem to always leave me
How I wish it should find me this day
I would hold it so tightly
Hoping it would stay
For it be just 14 sleeps
To see if there be beauty to find
Be you my lovely Valentine
Oh Cupid may your arrow strike true
Love shall find its way to my door
And come through
If not for the lonely hearts
But find love for myself
Be it the first time it be felt
Lamenting on time already served
The obligation to not sound so absurd
Is that on that day
Love be on display
I sit and wait
For anyone to be my date
One rose I found just for you
But alone I did sit
Seems no one will be my right fit
To save the day
And take my broken heart away
But as midnight strikes
I be such a lonely sight
I find myself in the coldest bed
Couldn’t even love myself in the end
My Valentine where art thou
I needed you yesterday
I need you NOW
