Standing Valentine's Without a Partner
Solitude but with a hope

Hearts in red array,
moonlight paints the silent play,
I walk here alone.
.
Voices drift like mist,
soft refrains of love assist,
yet I stand apart.
.
Stars above me shine,
watch my quiet thoughts refine,
dreams dissolve in night.
.
Petals gently fall,
sorrows from a distant hall,
cryings fade away.
.
Yet in midnight’s dark,
hope still blooms within my heart,
love’s embrace remains.
