today is february 14th
it's valentine's day
i see all my friends who are happy
getting chocolates, roses, and that sappy romance
i thought i would finally get that this year
but of course not
i hoped for it and now it's gone
somehow i have to make peace with the fact that i'm single again
i'm trying to convince myself that it wasn't me
that i was enough and that not why you chose to leave
but it breaks my heart when i think you've moved on
i was excited to write you a sweet little note
but i instead write you this poem
people say that i didn't lose you
that actually you lost me
you'll be searching in everyone for someone like me
they tell me you'll never find someone close to me
but i don't think that's true
or maybe it is
i'm not really sure
i lay in my bed waiting for you to reply to my snap
because i love you and i want to hear back
i remember how you to respond all the videos i sent in our chat
Will you still do that?
just this once for me?
so i can pretend that it's gonna be alright
that i still have the rest of my life
but to be honest, it seems pretty dark without your sun
so happy valentines to me i guess
just me
alone in my bed
