Here's a nice little Valentine's Day poem for ya!!!

There were roses in my mind,
But you had died,
Today was just another day,
Like all the others,
over years and landscapes,
pretty things that were deceitful,
in between I lost easily,
not so quickly regained,
my balance is faltering,
thinking how far away you seem,
as long as I keep my eyes on the road,
didn’t want to lose my place in oblivion,
Opulent with lacking prevalence,
Who will be the next to come,
No one appears to possess the proper nerve,
I’m just a spectator in this round,
It’s been running dry ever since it began,
A fatigued heart lies futile,
would it save my existence to know,
to hear the words I’ve chosen for you to speak,
a home for unattainable broken reminders,
every day is just another excuse to render you alive.

Taking control,
A restoring energy,
Thrown into a means to better myself,
Soon you won’t recognize who I am,
A new reflection to please,
This is for me,
Inspired by scenes I wish to attain,
I can’t wait to see surprised wide eyes,
It’s all been done before,
I won’t be an exception,
It starts inside,
An added radiance to my exterior,
Cut loose from the past,
Tonight holds a different meaning,
I refuse to settle for anything less,
All your games have been retired,
I will tell you exactly what I think of you,
Everything you wish to ask,
I’ve always been on your side,
I’ve played your breed of pretend for much too long,
You live in a world of dreams,
It’s time to come down,
Can you last or will you wilt?
Strife only makes me stronger,
So do your worst.
