To 143 This Valentines

1 4 3 on Valentines... From Me

I was used to having you around
Even though it meant my head would pound
Even though my heart would ache
I was used to waking up and seeing your face

But everything happens for a reason
That’s what they say

You and I had our time
Joyful and sad days, our love was bitter and sweet like lemon lime
I don’t mind letting her have you this valentine’s coz I had mine
Mine was twelvemonths times fourteen
I was with you since I was a teen

Now a grown woman, and I am pleased, to have journeyed this road with you
With a smile on my face and a little pain in my heart
I wish you a Happy Valentine’s Day...1= I     4= Love   3= You
