Roses
roses are red.
violets are blue.
I feel red when im around you and blue when I realize that I cant have you.
It almost makes me not want to exsist on valentines day.
its the day choosen to celebrate love.
its a day meant for wholeness but it makes me feel so incomplete.
so I close up even more.
while everyone else is wining and dining and celebrating their love im like I always am.
sitting on my bed alone.
sipping cheap wine that burns and taste bitter going down.
just so I wont remember that this is all my fault.
I choose to ignore and to stay single because I want something meaningful.
Not a just because scenario.
I reach for the stars and Ive never once looked down
and thought maybe Im shooting to high.
except when I think about love which stinks.
ive never even seen a plastic rose.
I feel insignificant.
