The cynical truth about valentines day
Valentine’s Day is just a gimmick
It could be me as I’m a cynic
Partners shouldn’t be treated nice on one day of the year
That relationship would be critical and severe
Should show appreciation all year round
Everyday, every week like your interwound
Show and voice your love
Not annually going beyond and above
A small token of appreciation is more than enough
Filling their heart with kind words and stuff
Treat your lover with affection every day
Your heart on a sleeve to avoid the decay
It’s nice you are filling the pockets of a shop owner
Once a year is not enough to keep her
