Sad Valentine

my sweet love
is a name
     deep engraved

valentine
once sweet love
     with roses

candlelight
dark red wine
     Satin sheets

pearl necklace
chocolates
     gifts of love

now I bring
red roses
     and lay them

on his grave
and I weep
     this lost love

I ask God
Why did you
     Take my love

up above
he had things
     yet to do

forever
he is my
     valentine
