on valentine's day--
feel obligated
to send me flowers
to celebrate our relationship of lies?
obligated
to compose poetry
to profess your love that doesn't exist?
I prefer tulips and lyrics.
 
Greta,
I love this. Simplicity is awesome in poems. You can say so much with so little. Keep up the awesome work. Hugs

You ever wonder how V-day sounds like an std name. damn right, keep that cynical streak, as if hallmark needs to make one day for people who should be telling each other the same thing they do everyday. Its kinda like earth day, um shouldn't we always do that.
 
greta -
This is amazing cos it represents all my thoughts about V.Day adding to which the point Supersonic made.
As I have expressed on here before I do not believe in V.day beacuse I think that people should make an attempt to be nice and considerate to each other all year round.
Instead of just one day of the year when they feel obligued to buy chocolates and flowers.
I know there are people out there who will say, but my partner is lovely to me all year round. Well bloody lucking for you if you have found that perfect someone. But I don't believe there is such a person. Everyone has their arguements and alot of cruelty and power games go on.
I think that if everyone took 100th of the effort they put in on V.day and applied it to every day of their life to make the relationship better it would be much more constructive than screaming at each other all year and then "making it up" with a cheezy card.
I'm sorry to make the comparison and I am NO WAY talking of all relationships here but V.day to me smacks of the "Abused wife stays with husband" The wife is hit - feels obviously hurt - then husband makes it up with affection and "love" - wife stays. And for why would any women stay in such an unnatural, terrifying existence - because they are convineced that the superficial offerings represent his true feelings, amounst other reasons.
I just think that true love cannot be expressed through flowers and pink hearts and pointless, routine, superficial presents are more hurtful than none atall.
