Will You Be My Valentine?

Not going to win me any awards, but sometimes we need to be silly.

Will you share this special day

with me?

 

This silly, over dramatic day;

This disguised yet disarmingly

tragic day?

 

Okay,

let's get introductions out of the way.

 

I'm a Virgo with a tender tendency

to cry.

and a lilt to my smile

that will invite you in,

and a whimsical innocence...

 

Nah, let's try this again.

 

I'm a student of psychology,

but there's a million things

so very wrong with me.

In the evening i will place so delicately

your fingers to my lips.

 

We will be safe, together.

 

Am I making sense?

Whatever.

 

Instead let's talk about

our secret hopes and dreams.

Mine are quite dusty,

and ripping at the seams.

 

You could inspire me to live again;

perhaps find my magic muse again?

 

How silly and so selfish of me;

To place upon you the burden

of such responsibility!

 

You know what?

Forget it.

 

We're better off alone.

 

Maybe next year, we'll both have better luck.

 

But seriously?

I mean seriously,

 

I don't give a f**k.

I had a moment like this earlier on!
I love the introduction to you..........and all the uplifting things that could be if he so choose....
And the end of course, the uncaring well, f**k you, and its not a responsibilty to be loved and want love............great catchy piece.........I expect Valentines day provokes alot of thoughts.........

Everybody should have a 'song of myself'. Or two or three, one for every mood. I like the guise of this one as one side of a conversation.
