Lord R. E. Taylor Poet Free verse

Valentines Days Letters

He has a handwritten letter 
Written years ago when he was a boy
A special letter to someone special
He wrote it on Valentine's Day
Asking his secret love to be his
But it was never delivered
He just kept it locked away
He never worked up the courage
But he didn't know that she wrote a letter
She also wrote it on Valentine's Day
It spoke of her love for that young man
But it was never delivered
So, they both missed out on love
All on a Valentine's Day

Thandwa Nkambule February 10, 2022 at 6:23 PM The fear of being rejected has caused people to be shy

Connie Marcum Wong February 9, 2022 at 12:30 AM This sounds like it may have happened and it is sad. When we are young we are often so shy not to let our feelings be known for fear of rejection. I really enjoyed this my friend. Blessings xxoo
