The day of hearts

It was Valentine's Day,

I sat at my usual table in my favorite cafe,

pulled out my favorite leather journal that held all of the secrets my mind cannot hold,

and I wrote everything that I wish you'd say to me.

It was Valentine's Day, 

but you did not show up to declare your everlasting love for me.

It was Valentine's Day, 

and I had to hold my heart in my own hands because self-love is the only kind of love I will get today.
