Valentine's day

By Nail Bunny

Loving hearts
Cracked and bleeding
Stiched together
Always seeming
Quite alright
But tonight
Cupid's darts
Are striking hearts
Dead and rotten
Hurt, forgotton.

Halmark Holiday
no true feeling
just like any day
but emotions reeling
feel alone
undesired
negative
feelings fired
to the breaking point.

2/14
spreads envy green
as green is spent
on where you went
was it enough
to satisfy?
Or will she choose
to say goodbye?

Total stranger
a blind date's better
than the lonliness
of being bitter.

National obsession
need
for for possession.
Desperately need love
singlehood is not enough
even if voluntary
negative stigmas very
prevalent.

ROSES ARE RED,
but embarassment redder.
VIOLETS ARE BLUE,
but diamonds are better.
SUGAR IS SWEET,
but none for you.
Happy Valentine's day
I LOVE YOU too.
