certainly you, my friend, must think so too!
Still at home on this dreary day all alone,
has always been the most desirous thing to do.
Because it so that lovely time of the year again,
when Hallmark monopolizes its cutesy cards and bears.
When chocolate goes from store shelves to lovers' hands,
and romantic music drifts sickly through the air.
Plastic heart shaped, over-sized metallic balloons,
glitter and gleam in whatever door one steps through.
Oh, but the pointless money spending does not stop there,
for every grade school child gives out Valentines too.
Jewelry is exchanged in colored boxes with bows,
and the bills sore higher as the savings fall ever lower.
Romantic dinners with one plate of pasta for two,
as couples cling together, dancing in the moonlight's glow.
Teen queens are basking in their temporary glory,
arms and lockers overflowing with countless love tokens.
And then there are the girls that wish they could disappear,
because the only thing they hold is a heart shattered and broken.
Some might say these girls are simple and most definitely jealous,
because it was "just wrong" to be so dejected and depressed that way.
So don't let me be the one to pour down the rain on your parade,
I'll just go on and wish you a "Happy Single Awareness Day."
Haha this is classic. It seems like all 3 of us will be alone this year on Valentines day. Cheers to being single!
