I'm not mad at you

for telling me "no";

you had your reasons,

that's not a blow.

Valentine's is

(with the right choice)

a time to relax,

a time to rejoice.

If you have to know,

this is my plan:

I'm going on a date,

and it's "table for one".

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.
