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

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSgeiTCwNN

Her fingers clasped onto the stone

Trying to find way to hold her back

A sign of reluctance?

A sign of guilt?

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRtgeIOojh

Her hair grazed her skin,

jagged like glass

Splitting the skin

Eyes succumbed to toxins

The stare of strangers

The weight of pain

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4pvWGBUFU

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

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHmReWkRm0

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

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rsd0aLOdE

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

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8DMAide5s

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?

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEC00ldtWG

What to do

I stand up without thinking

I advance till my hand overlaps hers

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmunFe240Ly

Her eyes lock into mine

I feel her imaginary arms holding onto me

Clutching to my body

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQQxvt77h4

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

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikQc6WcbaX

I hold her against me

A hold of hope

I watch as a man approach,

he slips a rose between my fingers

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3KJACQvLR

Her eyes drifted up

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

I slip the flower into her hand

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGUSO25Vus

This, ‘are you sure?’ Coming to play

Will she change her mind?

Will I go with her or stay with her?

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR6DhGYDXB

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

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHg2OmUN2J

That day was Valentine’s Day

Even if it wasn’t official

It was ours

102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2QWglQzmE

The day we met,

The day I saved her

And perhaps,

The day she saved me
