I Wish I Could Meet You - Valentine’s Day Special

Valentine’s Day Special

2 Mins Read

Across the way

My eyes locked

A girl staring into the stream as if it’s her only escape

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn3mjOhRK7

Her fingers clasped onto the stone

Trying to find way to hold her back

A sign of reluctance?

A sign of guilt?

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISpZvaCsAl

Her hair grazed her skin,

jagged like glass

Splitting the skin

Eyes succumbed to toxins

The stare of strangers

The weight of pain

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKwW6bFZBn

I watch her from afar

My body itches to move forward

To hold her

To be the hand that holds her back,

Or goes down with her

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gSbWB6Wza

It’s Valentine’s Day.

Did you know?

The day of love and chocolates and roses

The day you only focus on the ones you love

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq98YDc6Bi

Sometimes there are haters

And sometimes you can love them

Maybe because they’re the only ones there for you to love

I saw a picture once, at a school,

There was a bridge that said, ‘are you sure?’

Many people jump to escape the surface of life

To dive underneath into darkness

The, ‘are you sure?’ is a hopeless way to help

It’s just a writing on the wall

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpj7xxzBAb

I don’t want to be a writing on a wall

I want to go and help her

Can I?

Should I?

Should I let her story fold out how she wants?

Or is this not what she wants?

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KNW3kSd1H

What to do

I stand up without thinking

I advance till my hand overlaps hers

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3mZsnKSPY

Her eyes lock into mine

I feel her imaginary arms holding onto me

Clutching to my body

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3L1c90o7k

It’s Valentine’s Day.

Did you know?

The day she could’ve been home with someone she loves

But she’s here with me

Holding on to me figuratively

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvNSkwUzVu

I hold her against me

A hold of hope

I watch as a man approach,

he slips a rose between my fingers

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeY9XdjKEC

Her eyes drifted up

The pieces of glass that were once shattered are together once more

I slip the flower into her hand

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvCRH6YXrD

This, ‘are you sure?’ Coming to play

Will she change her mind?

Will I go with her or stay with her?

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEDzqmaf0e

It’s Valentine’s Day.

We love and we cherish

We hold each other for a day,

Hoping that we can stay like this forever

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FI20mTeiI

That day was Valentine’s Day

Even if it wasn’t official

It was ours

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzVScjQbJt

The day we met,

The day I saved her

And perhaps,

The day she saved me
