1. Not Just Another Day

    Valentine's Day. Just another reminder of what could never be. I walked away when you made your choice and I'm left with only painful memories. There are no cards, no chocolates, no gifts to be shared with my intended. When the fourteenth comes around each year I'm reminded of all that could not be. Your hand wasn't destined to be mine and my life forever changed that day. For that was the day when I set you free and became a prisoner for eternity. Through the years I wish and I wonder if I had only tried harder to win you. Would the outcome have been different or would he always hold sway? There has never been another, no one to share my soul and desires. No one who could compare with your beauty and grace. No one to fill my empty spirit with feelings. When this day comes, the sting returns to remind me of my destiny. My eyes fill with sadness and pain until the dam bursts and releases the torrent. The tears are my only companion on this day and I can feel each one as they silently fall.
