A Valentine’s Curse

Folder: 
Hating Him

I miss you most at

This time of year with

Reds and blushing pinks

Sprinkled all over

And the smell of

Flowers in the air.



Cupid shot his bow

Towards my heart

Long ago.



But I think the tip

Of his arrow must

Have been filled  

With poison because

I’m paralyzed by

My love for you.



No amount

Of confections

Can melt my love.



This Valentine’s Day

I will remember

The love we expressed

On this very day

Just two years ago

With bitter memories.



Bitter spoonfuls of not

So semi-sweet chocolate

In the root of my mouth.
