V for Valentine's

Every year on Valentine's day, there's always going to be someone that doesn't have anyone to tell them that they love them. Every year on Valentine's day, someone will be sitting at home alone with no one to care.
Then there are those people who have someone on Valentine's day, someone to hold, someone to love. Sometimes the ones who are lonely see the ones who are not and wish they had that. So I'd like to share these string of words on this Valentine's Day...


The day of love draws near,
Time for love and flowers,
Fancy candlelit dinners,
Staring at each other for hours.

The day of the lovers,
On a Wednesday this year,
More suicides occur,
As this dreadful day draws near.

Oh Valentines day,
Cruel Valentines day.
Why do you taunt me,
With your melting candy hearts,
And your paper "I love you"s?
With your sugar coated lies,
That taste as sweet as hate.

Watching lovers cuddles,
Just deepens the pain.
"I'm a nobody, I have nothing to gain"

Some miss their ex,
Some have lost all hope,
"I'm not beautiful"
Then they overdose on dope

So many couples,
Everywhere you go.
And here you stand alone,
Nothing but sadness,
Comes from your eyes
On Valentine's Day.

It's supposed to be a happy day,
For most people it probably is
But not your kind of day.

So when with your other tomorrow,
Forgive those who whine,
Remember not everyone
Has their own Valentine.

You have no one
Standing next to you,
You're all alone in the world.
Then you see
All the happy couples,
In love and holding hands.

It makes you sick to see them,
Thinking you aren't worth the time.
You just want the day to end
That's the way life goes.
Nothing good for you
This Valentine's Day...

We'll be waiting in the shadows,
We'll be waiting for a sign,
We'll be praying to our Gods each night
To bring back our Valentine!

Awww..poignant!

Yet Let us savour these lonely Valentines

For Without these days we spend in solitude

We would never know when we found those angels of mine

For only when we spend these days of heartbreak

We learn something about what it takes to love again

Maybe once we may lose her

But twice she may let us keep her

Could that be followed by forever?

Maybe, but if we'd never tried the pain of once,

How would we ever truly know the joy when we find the Special One

Watch the rainbow after the rain

There will be true love after the pain

Hold her tight never let her go again

For after a few lonely Valentines

Those ties they tighter bind.
