Valentines Set #2

One Heart

Opening your card,
I see three words
I. Love. You.
Around it, two wings
One shape, a heart...
Pierced by an arrow
Cupid, you say
The day you first lay your eyes on me,
"Fell in love" at "first sight"
Making 'love' sound like an accident
Stepped into a pool of red
Began our relationship
Because of chance?

Sorry...not what I believe
Love, for me...
NOT an accident
I believe, love began
With THREE words
I. Love. You.
TWO wings, that took flight
and
One heart.


The following poem has a theme of 'friendship' given to me by 'CINDY'...
and where does "love" come in, you may ask? It's Valentines! Not a...special friend day... however, I find that in times where you need comfort or a hand, it's usually your friend that's always ready...not your lover, not your boyfriend...but a true friend who's always been with you...so here goes:

Friendship

Didn't we just meet,
Six months ago, on that august day
The sixteenth, seven fifty a.m.?

Didn't it just begin,
Term one, the first test,
The first hands held?

Walking down, the school halls
Together, your hand in mine
Mine in yours...

Steadfast love, FOREVER love
For each other our hearts hold
Today...and tomorrow...

Friendship speaks for itself
Neither am I your lover,
or companion...or peer

But someone, one who
Will forever hear your sorrows
And forever...

Your friend~
