I bet you thought that this was about Valentine's Day...
but instead, it's about reality:
how we bleed for those we love,
how we bleed for our friends
our family
our acquaintances.
But then, Valentine's Day comes along,
masquerading as a solution,
a promise for things getting better,
but instead,
we wind up dead or worse,
our wrists painted red and
we're crying in the corner
just wishing we were
dead.
