Valentine's Day
Chocolates... Roses...
The questions love poses...
Does he or doesn't he?
She cannot say...
Soft breezes... Moonlight...
Shooting stars take flight...
Sad uncertainties...
Valentine's Day...
Dinner... Dancing...
Such sweet romancing...
The morning sun rising
Seems so far away.
Whispers... Soft sighs...
Gazing into his eyes...
But still no "I love you's"
Valentine's Day
Why must he leave her uncertain?
Why must she hold to her dreams?
Why can't she pull back the curtains?
Could it be more than it seems?
Should she be constantly guessing?
Should she just give it away?
Should she just count all her blessings?
Hold on to hope day to day?
Morning... Sunlight...
He kissed her goodnight...
But he didn't tell her
What she wants him to say.
Candies... Flowers...
Gone like the hours
They had together,
Valentine's Day.
