My funny Valentine
I’m sorry I never told you I was leaving
As we sat eating, I knew I would never see you again
Valentines days seemed an auspicious day to leave
A memorable day
I was hoping you would have stayed longer, but no
You couldn’t, and so nor could I
We stood on the steps and I hugged you for the last time
Watching you walk away for the last time, you didn’t know
I don’t think you cared
You phoned a couple of times
I ignored it
And that was the end
We gave each other presents that valentines day
You were surprised by yours
I was always listening, just not in the way you needed
My funny valentine
