My unhappy valentines

Its valentine’s morning in New York City
And its valentines all around the world
And lovers buying chocolates and roses
And gifts of diamonds and gold 

Lovers and couples will celebrate
With romantic dinners with candle lights
Some might choose to stay at home
And make it a very special private night

Lovers holding hand and kissing
Showing that love is in the air
The magical powers of love 
Is floating around in the atmosphere

But although it may seem that love
Is being felt in the heart of every one
On this 2018 valentine’s day
Some are actually sad and alone

To be in love and to be loved 
Is one of the most amazing feelings you can get
But some lovers can be in a relationship and not be faithful 
So valentine’s day can also have a lot of heartaches, breakups, and regrets

for some people, February can be one of the loneliest time of the year
even for those of us are normally comfortable being single
because a life with love will have some thorns
but a life without love will have no roses

I stop looking for love a long time ago
And I think my heart has turned to stone
And I finally accept this as my life's destiny
So for every valentine’s day, I will be alone

But anyway “that’s enough about me”
Today I will go and clean out the backyard
To me, Valentines is just another ordinary day
With no roses and chocolate or cards

But If you are lucky to be someone’s valentines
Count it as a blessing from God up above
because some people live all of their lives
Never knowing what it feels like to be loved

Last night it was so freezing cold in New York 
And I saw a guy walking with balloons and flowers
He came out of a New York transit bus
And you can tell that he’s been carrying it for hours

Some men really try to show their love
To the women that hold their heart
And I think that a romance will last forever
Once you make the efforts to play your part

Don’t ever take someone’s heart for granted
Be thankful that you have your valentines
Because I don’t think that you would like your day 
If it ends up being a  lonely as mines

and though some people believe that Cupid is flying all over
and Just is letting his love-filled arrow flies 
Sadly to say “ it’s all just a myth and a fairy tale
In simple words “ its all a big pack of lies

I couldn’t be with the woman that I love
So I get used to living with this unceasing pain
But I know that on this Valentines Day I’m not the only one
And there are many just like me, who are linked in the chain

As I sit now in my corner writing my poems 
And drinking a bottle of Manischewitz red Jewish wine
And while many celebrate the glory of love
I sit here alone in my unhappy Valentine
