I know you can't talk,

(unmerciful truth);

I hope you don't mind

if I talk to you.

Mindless feelings

always on me;

acceptance, challenge,

never break free.

But it's Valentine's,

and everybody else

is opening hearts

chanting their spells.

Stay put with me,

don't go away;

mindfulness changes

starting tonight.

About the Creator

Alex Torres

Started writing short stories back in 1988 at work, when I had an empty page to fill for the employee's internal magazine. Taking the pen again after a 30 year-long hiatus, exploring where it takes me this time.
