For Valentine's DayI wanted to give you something totally out there.
My mind was going a billion miles an hour.
One night I had an idea.
I would make something that would be special and unique.

So I sat and thought in frustration.
Drawing was out of the question since I think I stink.
Collages are boringand mosaics take too much time.

Just then my mind ran into a wall.
I'll cook something, but what?
Heart-shaped cupcakes?
A cake?
No, I'll bake soem cookies.

They're not going to be just any cookies, but heart-shaped sugar cookies.
And to top them all of there should be red icing.
Maybe some skittles too.

Unfortunately, I burnt most of the cookies and my sister ate what was left.
So, I'm writing this little note to let you know how much you mean to me.
And also how hard I tried to to get you a present as perfect as YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

This is why I hate this day
Why Valentine's hold no joy
The candy hearts are taunting me
The bears all point to the heartless girl
Trying to shut you fom my mind
Every couple leaning in
Catching forbidden kisses
Mocks the fact that I'm alone
Memories haunt me
Whispering pain into my ear
And I remember
How was a five-year-old to know?
Her life-My life-was falling apart
Skipping the sidewalk to her home
Holding valentines in her hands
How was she to know what love was?
She didn't understand
I didn't know the meaning of what I saw that day
But I do now
How is someone who's seen nothing but pain
Supposed to believe in love?
On Valentine's Day
Ten years ago
My heart was torn out
Dropped on the floor like valentines released
From the hand of a five-year-old child.

Everyone can't wait for Valentines day
Everyone except me
They all want someone to be their Valentine
I want you to come back to me

I know it can't happen
But that doesn't stop me from wishing it was so
Now why do did you do that
Why did you have to go

Valentines day should bring joy
But all it does is remind me of you
We were good together
And you left my heart mangled
Like a broken little toy

How could you do that to me?
And on Valentines day too
You just went and crashed your car
Now every Valentines day I think of you.

"My Only Valentine"

A love so deep,
It causes pain.
The bond we shared,
I can't explain.

The days and nights,
we spent together.
You said you'd love me,
always and forever.

You were there for me,
when others were not.
The feelings you had for me,
that you suddenly forgot.

I'll always love you,
'til the end of time.
You will always be,
my only Valentine. . .

Edward's Valentine Ode to Bella

If you would let me
I'd give you the world
And only hope
That it was enough

If roses could bleed
Their blood would never be
As red in color
As your gentle lips

If I could give you
Every flower that ever grew
None could compare
To your sweet fragrance

If you asked me
What my favorite color was
The answer would be easy
It's the shade of your blush

If you wanted to give me a gift
There's only one thing I want
I only want an eternity
Just to be with you

Valentines will come and go
To me it doesn't matter
Because you're willing
To give up your life for me
And that's the best gift
A vampire could receive

So to my Bella:
If I thought anything was good enough
To give to you
You know I would

But all this vampire can give
Is the love in his stone-cold heart
And hope it's enough.
Happy Valentine's Day, my love.

"Memories Die. . ."

I close my eyes,
and breathe in the air.
Filling my lungs,
as your fingers run through my hair.
Your fingers entwined with mines,
as we hold each other tight.
I feel your breath on my neck,
as I stand here out of the light.
I can feel your heartbeat,
it's pounding in my ears.
I can feel the sadness,
and I can feel my tears.
I can feel you here,
I can feel your lips on mines.
I can feel your presence,
as I stop the hands of time.
I can see you smile,
I can feel your touch.
I can hear you say,
that you love me oh so much.
But as I reach out to grasp you,
you begin to slip away.
And that's when I open my eyes,
to remember, our memories that died...
10 years ago, today...

((I'm not sure if it's Valentine's day-ee but I that's the reason I wrote it, so I won't let
my work go to waste. . .))
