A lonely heart
not
cupid's calling
introspection
minus bows and arrows
absent of flowers and lace
pausing...
tear flow
soaked crimson envelop
over an unsent valentine
disgruntled heart
ignores
high pitched ringing
an inner calling
because angels sing on high
I cover my ears
silencing head pounds
escaping
wing whispered wonders
evoking
lonely travels
without hand holding
unlike couples
tugging at my heartstrings
burden of proof
weight I must carry
ache of my soul
what is this feeling
