‘The Valentine’ – Poem

Valentine,

You see me as a shadow,

If I belonged to someone else, would that ignite curiosity?

My eyes twinkle,

Does that reflect you or me?

Feel me to clarify I’m yours,

I’m you, but who am I?

I scream,

Birds singing as you gaze above,

I’m here, only if you look hard enough.

Make you laugh,

Inside I’m cold,

Why can’t you see me?

Close your eyes,

That’s why.
