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

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkq9UuIMdh8

Her fingers clasped onto the stone

Trying to find way to hold her back

A sign of reluctance?

A sign of guilt?

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ7ycZS869

Her hair grazed her skin,

jagged like glass

Splitting the skin

Eyes succumbed to toxins

The stare of strangers

The weight of pain

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98OvZDZgOH

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

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr979W476s

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

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEn27PBqKg

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

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡik4aNfL8Mf

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?

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVKf1V1H8k

What to do

I stand up without thinking

I advance till my hand overlaps hers

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvZkNGYtWd

Her eyes lock into mine

I feel her imaginary arms holding onto me

Clutching to my body

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0DoqENiIV

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

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7sE8gv3Rd

I hold her against me

A hold of hope

I watch as a man approach,

he slips a rose between my fingers

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8B9ezExKo

Her eyes drifted up

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

I slip the flower into her hand

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDD7mRyl9uU

This, ‘are you sure?’ Coming to play

Will she change her mind?

Will I go with her or stay with her?

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqkwnnCWW7

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

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09x2686ip0

That day was Valentine’s Day

Even if it wasn’t official

It was ours

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisTKUshD5j

The day we met,

The day I saved her

And perhaps,

The day she saved me
