Valentine

Pen to paper; only to realize I hate her

Word to voice; but I don’t do it by choice

I confess I write best when I’m good and depressed

And I’d be blessed to have that beautiful mess

Words that others would call conversation

Leave my heartbeat with no chance of cessation

Sit there and say those words we long to hear

Sit here staring blind wishing you would soon appear

Ambition coerces those trapped by unknown forces

But doesn’t provide the motivation to run down those wild horses

Feelings of regret, of which you can bet

Will leave you clutching losing tickets in a cold sweat

A love of drugs that keeps the drugs lovin’ you

A want for release that you now can’t undo

Just a bunch of puppies that wanna fuck like rabbits

Why not kick it while we can? Since we can’t kick the habit

A length of leg and miles of style

But God forbid she ever stop and smile

Attack with the rack and then leave you behind

She’s fasting forward while they all wish they could rewind

People watching loses its sex appeal

And we start longing for someone to feel

I may be paranoid, but not an android

Just another piner trying to fill that minor void

Get up from a day just like any other day

To leave us ogling your sway, sauntering away

And no one even has to out rightly say

That given the chance they’d sure as hell play

A quick check of the shoes will tell you what you stand to lose

But you’ll still choose the one with issues

Drama’s the true spice of life

And your desire for it’s so thick you could cut it with a knife

So back to a night absent of your sight

Back to a fight that just isn’t quite right

Back to a day, for which we all prayed

Would lead to a night that would never fade

For the love of blond! I just want a brunette!

Red headed to a mess that I won’t soon forget

Color me lusting, for that damn pollution

But I’m out of ideas; so what’s your solution?

Pen to paper; only to realize I love her

Word to voice; and I’m doing it by choice

I confess I wrote this knowing not what to say

Here’s to the one still getting away, happy Valentines Day
