Notes About The Poem

No worries - fiction!

Valentine Schmalentine

VALENTINE SCHMALENTINE

Walking on bleeding hearts like eggshell parts
My valentine broke Cupid’s angel wings
I don’t know what to believe when he brings
Ample heart-shaped boxes of Chocolate darts

We’ve been together since I don’t know when
He loves me he loves me not a gold ring
He comes home when he wants to, it’s his thing
Doesn’t like when I question where’s he been

Hopefully he’ll propose on bended knee
Expecting a dozen wild red roses
Or lay some myself where he decomposes
And his valentine, that’s me, will be free

Daniel Turner January 31, 2017 at 10:15 AM Congratulations Mrs Kim on your placement in the contest. For his sake, I hope you get your roses. Lol Kim Rodrigues January 31, 2017 at 10:30 AM LOL...just a fairytale. My husband is a great gift giver not that I need them. He's just a romantic. We met each other on Valentine's day when I arrived at Navy A school. So we can't help but enjoy the whole Valentine SCHMALENTINE thing. :)
