She clearly knows
It's Valentines,
But she could care less
For this day,
Clearly labeled
On all the calendars
How could one miss
All the **** signs?
Radios blasting
Commercials on TV,
Emails and Internet
Saturated in marketing
Love for a day,
Come one come all
Let's crowd the mall!
Mindlessly buying
Indifferently picking
Gifts quickly forgotten,
But she isn't crying
She's just a hint of smitten,
One rose by her side
Her smile is quite wide,
Because she's been loved
Yesterday, and will be
Tomorrow as she has been
Every past day,
And she knows today
Won't be the last
Because he promised
He would; forever...
