February Poetry Contest - Valentine’s Day

Across the way

My eyes locked

A girl staring into the stream as if it’s her only escape

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv3J02WLIh

Her fingers clasped onto the stone

Trying to find way to hold her back

A sign of reluctance?

A sign of guilt?

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATVqh77krB

Her hair grazed her skin,

jagged like glass

Splitting the skin

Eyes succumbed to toxins

The stare of strangers

The weight of pain

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb5vPC3PQ0

I watch her from afar

My body itches to move forward

To hold her

To be the hand that holds her back,

Or goes down with her

It’s Valentine’s Day.

Did you know?

The day of love and chocolates and roses

The day you only focus on the ones you love

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIMWKgWjg7

Sometimes there are haters

And sometimes you can love them

Maybe because they’re the only ones there for you to love

I saw a picture once, at a school,

There was a bridge that said, ‘are you sure?’

Many people jump to escape the surface of life

To dive underneath into darkness

The, ‘are you sure?’ is a hopeless way to help

It’s just a writing on the wall

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNq5FMcw4X

I don’t want to be a writing on a wall

I want to go and help her

Can I?

Should I?

Should I let her story fold out how she wants?

Or is this not what she wants?

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgDuwm1iig

What to do

I stand up without thinking

I advance till my hand overlaps hers

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpY2GYvYpw

Her eyes lock into mine

I feel her imaginary arms holding onto me

Clutching to my body

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXS2dFKmlOQ

It’s Valentine’s Day.

Did you know?

The day she could’ve been home with someone she loves

But she’s here with me

Holding on to me figuratively

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJYZFcOYKv

I hold her against me

A hold of hope

I watch as a man approach,

he slips a rose between my fingers

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hK8Bx8wG5

Her eyes drifted up

The pieces of glass that were once shattered are together once more

I slip the flower into her hand

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCeOKxwxUR

This, ‘are you sure?’ Coming to play

Will she change her mind?

Will I go with her or stay with her?

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzD2YCk9ha

It’s Valentine’s Day.

We love and we cherish

We hold each other for a day,

Hoping that we can stay like this forever

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCNPfSRvpD

That day was Valentine’s Day

Even if it wasn’t official

It was ours

164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpaxlSAFoZ

The day we met,

The day I saved her

And perhaps,

The day she saved me
