Your Valentine

***

                                  I sent a rose to you today.
                                     I hope you didn't mind.
                                  I left it with the Archangel.
                                who was standing just outside.

                                      I left a note upon it.
                                  signed, "To My Valentine,"
                              The simple words were blurred.
                            From the tears that I could not hide.

                          You have enriched my life with laughter.
                                   and made the sun to shine.
                                  I love you and I miss you.
                                   Signed, your Valentine.

                           Sometimes when my heart is heavy,
                                  and these tears I can't avoid,
                        I would rather have loved you for a moment.
                                  than to have an empty void.

                           Please save a place for me, my love.
                                  If  you wouldn't mind,
                               Remember that I love you.
                                  Signed, your Valentine.
