V-Day

I bet you wonder what Cupid does

When he's lost his bow and arrow-

He throws shards ,

With kind regards-

To that dusty old flame that's still in your heart.

Now you're stuck

thinking on the ex-

That poured marmalade across your skin

Who you'd do things with

that'd make the devil blush.

And I'd never

Had me a call

Before you came into my life,

But somehow you dialed the number that connected to my soul.

And I don't need chocolate,

Or silly hearts

Just those silver kisses

You use to put on a lone wolf

That still singe on my back,

Still leaves this yearning within-

Almost thinking we should retie loose ends.

Yet that's not love talking because I gave it away.

Left it for the younger ones-

They wait eager for their day.

They lick the crumbs off from our last heated moment.
