Valentine's Daggers

Karyn Indursky 2/14/11

Unyielding Valentine's Day wishes

burn into my spirit

while Cupid's laughter

fades after his arrow

bypassed me for everyone else.

Relentless Valentine's Day pictures

expose my internal wounds

to pour alcohol for

burning, tearful, heart-wrenching sensations.

Merciless Valentine's Day cards

display unreciprocated dreams

for love, affection, romance.

Ruthless Valentine's Day songs

strum my broken heart...
