Chocolate Hearts written in I love you's

The fourteenth day of the second month

cycles around for the twenty-second time

Accompanied by a cup of tea and silence

A romanticized season for the happy couples

A secret yearning among the lost and wandering

Of another year together or searching

Another year of a drink and silence

For those among the heart-shaped eye folk who keep our circled iris

Content by ourselves

Filling our hearts and souls with self-love
