Valentine's Day used to be my favourite day of the year
It was the day I met you
It wasn't love at first sight
In fact we didn't even like each other
But you were everything my life was missing
I first felt your gentle and feather light touch in my heart when I realised
You'd claim to hate me and never let me walk home alone
Said you couldn't stand me but you'd always answer when I'd call you on the phone
You got your heart broken and you called me to talk
We always found ourselves wanting to be closer
And every time you spoke of your strong desire to stay away from me I saw your faint smile
And a look in your eyes that said
I have never wanted anyone more
And also a bit of you are my favourite person to annoy with my incessant talking
It's what I like the most about you
You could talk to me for hours
About anything
It didn't matter if you were bleeding out sadness and grief
Or spitting venom and strong distaste
Or crying sunshine while being barely able to breathe from your contagious laughter
You had this laugh that made everyone else laugh
If happiness was a sound it would be your laugh
I miss you
I miss the way you'd run your fingers through my hair
Or read your favourite classics to me
Or sneak up behind me and hug me
Or kiss my forehead and whisper something close
I miss fighting over whose favourite movie or song was better
Now your gone it's so dreadfully empty
It's like time is broken just like me
Because everything is moving so slowly and yet the tears fall so quickly
I wanna hear your voice
I wanna feel your heart pounding
I wanna watch you breathing
But I can't
And it's Valentine's Day
I'm holding roses and a card
And instead of jumping on top of you and screaming I love you
I'm sitting in front of your grave
Gasping as the air refuses to enter my lungs
Provide some relief
From my crushing earth shattering pain
I feel the shards of my old happy life stabbing painfully into my sides
And I can't pull them out
Because my eyes are drowning in my tears
And the world around is muffled
And your gone
I just can't live with that
Time isn't healing
Because I'm still bleeding
My heart won't stop crying
Begging for you to come home
I don't realise how long I've been here
Until I see it's dark
But everything is without you
Happy Valentine's Day love
I miss you endlessly
Your Valentine
