Valentine's Day Cry...

A Poem by Jamestown

Longing for love...

Valentine's Day, a wonderful day of joy, love and lust,
Unfortunately for me, just a big bust,
Tears of a longing love, flooding my heart,
it wasn't always like this, I have to restart,
She said "I need to be free"
I felt crushed and very deceived,
After 15 years of pure love,
my wife flew away, just like a dove,
Now all I can do is watch loving couples enjoy this romantic day,
as I sit around humbly broken and pray,
I ask God to please send me the woman of my dreams,
and assure him, I'll do anything by all means,
I look to the sky and let out a violent, Valentine's Day cry,
and plead to have that special someone to love,
hoping he will send her from above,
I know my angel is out there searching for me,
I just wonder where she could be,
All in God's time our hearts will unite,
and when they do, I will hold on tight,
Then I let out a huge sigh ,
and one last Valentine's Day cry...

James no doubt it's really a sad story, and you know I wish you'll find her, the girl of your dreams.
A moving piece.

moving poem, i hope you found some consolation on valentines day.
apparently the average marriage (in the UK) lasts only 11 years, so think of it as you got four good years more than the average sod. This is probably not much consolation though i guess. do you still keep in touch?

Oh this was very touching.
Valentine's Day can be tough if you don't have a lover to celebrate it with.
Nicely done.

Ahhh... Valentines Day..this is my first Valentines day with no valentine. I hear you... it's in His hands. Everything happens for a reason and when the time is right your heart will ignite with the one He has planned for you. Thanks for sharing.

Aloha,

Everyday is Valentine's Day with the right one...

The most important thing is to never let your circumstances define you... as you are much more than that.

We may not always understand the why when certain things happen...but if you place your faith and trust in the Creator of everything...then He absolutely won't let you down.

Everything happens for a reason as there are no coincidences in the life of a believer and the great comfort here is that nothing catches God by surprise...

Stay strong and continue to believe...she is out there, waiting for you.

Thank you for stopping by and for your comments. I look forward to reading more of your thoughts on my work.

Alisa ;-)

People come and go. Even the ones who promised to stay for life. There are many reasons of every people's choice. And there are many reasons why fate is not what we wish to have. But God knows what's best for us. He knows who's the best person for you.

I wish for your Valentine's laughter on the next episode of your life, James. God bless!

This was a beautiful piece. From the title, I thought it was simply going to be about a girl crying and bawling her eyes out. One of those everyday lovesick poems, but this one is different. It's more of a battle cry of finally spending time by yourself, hoping and wishing for new love as another has moved on. It's nothing like a lovesick poem and I admire that!
