Cupid Conscious
Inverse Valentine's Day Poem
A dream is more than a dream
I don't think so
Sick of
Such nonsense
Pondering
Feeling fluff and stuff
Avoiding
I've had enough
Wondering
Waiting
True hearts belated
Happy cherub, wing related
Narrow-minded
Not
An arrow found
What is this sound
"Hear the calling," he says
Airspace's bow pulls back
Unattached
Latch lacking key
What about me
Listening intently
"Hark"
I hear nothing
Red means Amor
Worthless chore
Angry and lonely
When evidence matters
Heart bruises
Like
Paint splatters
Breathing through heartbleeds
Switching it up
Replace
Unreciprocated faces
My unmet needs
Yearnings
Equals
Unacquired learnings
Ridiculous
At best
Of course
There is no love for me
❤️ Now read backward to reveal a different meaning
