Be Mine

It is Valentine's day and I find myself brooding as I sift through thoughts both perpetual and disquieting; I watch the crowds as they piously enter the card shop for that sanctimonious day of love and passion What do I know about love and the hunger games? Life has sent me a series of boyfriends that go swifter then they come. Leaving me in transient motion and rocking frame. No, I have no reverence for that clamorous day of cards, blue mascara and silk slips that throne the bedroom with sensuous hips that swing in fervidness and lust; I refuse to be his middle pass. Lost in a disquietude of feverish resentment I cling to the fantasy of saving grace and heroes of the past that show amorousness not with fired loins but through chivalry & courtesy; Yes, I thirst for the good old days of longitude and time; The vehemence of my strong belief originates from past histories that repeat without empathy and give; No effervescence of full boy will ever claim my heart except the love of a true one nothing else will do; In this day and age of texting and sexting, glass tap messages pale in my arena of love. I'd rather live in a castle of fairy tales, then in a world of veneration to to the holy bod and boob. So on this Valentine day I will part the valance of doubt and hope that I can find someone who can truly be mine.
