Today is Valentines Day. I’m sharing sentiments with Ronita Lee<\/a>, who wrote this poem about being alone on a couples’ holiday:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>

Today is Valentine’s Day,
A day to show a loved one you care,
But how can you hold them, kiss them, console them
When no one is even there?<\/p>

Today is a day of us together
And not a second to be left apart,
But knowing today won’t bring those things
Continues to break my heart.<\/p>

I know I’m supposed to be happy,
And I really look the part,
But how can I smile
And pretend that I’m happy
When a piece is missing from my heart?<\/p>

Today won’t change the crying.
Today won’t change pain.
Today won’t change the fact
That heartache is now a part of my name.<\/p>

Today for me is lonely.
Today for me is untrue.
Today for me is wishing
That once again I still had you.<\/p>

But wishes are like fairy tales;
They rarely do come true,
So today is a day of loneliness
And me being sad and blue.<\/p>

Today for you is laughing
Because to you, my love is a game,
So while you’re happy spending time with friends.
I’m left to drown in pain.<\/p>

Today is not a day anymore.
It’s a waste of useless time.
Today for me is
Loneliness, heartache, crying, praying
That soon again you’d be mine.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
