Valentine's Slam
A centric couple
Echanging different coloured roses
Holding hands with vice like grip
Earth betwix their curling toes
Beneath a moonlight torn astray
With such so birthed exploding hearts
It even stirs the deaf neighbours
And labours love
Valentine poison arrow breech
Still hidden in the shadowy hall's
Of old school gym lockers
Now used as passwords
That scar to this day
Because
They are a cold reminder
Of what it was like growing up
Deemed to be never worthy
Of 1 single solitary flower bought
Nor
Valentine's card written
Hopefully better late than never
Something's are wasted on the young
And are worth waiting for
And mean so much more
When the right time
And the right person comes along
