No
I do not Like
Valentine’s Day
I WISH
It would Please
Just go AWAY
If you are
Married or in Love
Valentine’s Day
Comes from Cupid
Angels up Above
Deliveries to Work
The Gifts
Of Candy and Flowers
Evening Plans
Romantic Candlelight Dinner
Lasting for Hours
Followed by
Hugs and Kisses
And many
Sweet untold Wishes
However if you Are
Alone or Single
This Day is
An empty Heart
That sadly Tingles
One by One each Co-worker
Receives their Deliveries
Their glances of Pity
Adds to my Miseries
Their words of Sympathy
Only deepen my Pain
Hoping for
This day to END
Before I go INSANE
A Day
RUBBED
IN MY FACE
Now Bitter Lonely Sadness
Are my
Only Grace
Hurtful memories of
Old verse New
Dinner for ONE
Instead of for TWO
No,
I do not Like
Valentine’s Day
I WISH
It would Please
Just Go AWAY
There was a Time
When I too Received
Many Deliveries
Before the days of Now
And my Miseries
My Heart my Love
Did no come Home
Nor did HE
Call on the Telephone
No Hash Words
No Fight
I spent Valentine’s Night
Staring out the window
ALONE
His behavior
I don’t
Won’t
Condone
I Cried
Myself to Sleep
I Thought
Life
Couldn’t be
More Bleak
Wondering is
THIS my LIFE?
That of
A New young Wife!
He came Home
After a Night
At the BAR
He bought me Flowers
But
Left them in the Car
The next Day
When I AWOKE
Not a Word
between Us
We SPOKE
Retrieved From
The Car FLOOR
I was SHOCKED
When he Strolled
Through the Door
He brought IN
The Flowers
Putting them
In a Vase
You should Have
SEEN
The look on My
FACE
Two Dozen Beautiful
Long stemmed ROSES
had WILTED
Like OUR Love
Empty and Jilted
I Took
A pair of Scissors
From the Drawer
By the Bed
Cutting the Roses
ONE by ONE
At the Base
of the Bulb
HEAD
Silently
I set Down
The Scissors
Without
Placing Blame
My husband
Said Nothing
Only Hung
His Head
In SHAME
I made it Clear
I never want ROSES
On Valentine’s Day
We NEVER
Spoke of IT
What is the
POINT
Anyway
No
I don't Like
Valentine’s Day
I WISH
It would Please
Just go AWAY
