Your Valentine
***
I sent a rose to you today.
I hope you didn't mind.
I left it with the Archangel.
who was standing just outside.
I left a note upon it.
signed, "To My Valentine,"
The simple words were blurred.
From the tears that I could not hide.
You have enriched my life with laughter.
and made the sun to shine.
I love you and I miss you.
Signed, your Valentine.
Sometimes when my heart is heavy,
and these tears I can't avoid,
I would rather have loved you for a moment.
than to have an empty void.
Please save a place for me, my love.
If you wouldn't mind,
Remember that I love you.
Signed, your Valentine.
