So many over emphasize

A day that glorifies

Balloons filled with

Shallow breaths

Flowers that were picked

For merely a random soul...

Sweet chocolate

That holds an underlying bitter taste

Because the mouth of the giver

Is sour instead of sweet

A forced day of love

Is worse than a lifetime of searching

For a soul that matches your own

This soul cannot be found

In a vase filled with random beauty

Or a box plumb full of delectable sweets…

Simple stated,

If you need a particular day to honor those that you love

Than that love is lacking

And as hollow as a cream centered chocolate

That was forgotten to be filled.

Life is short…don’t wait

Love those you love…

And fill their chocolate centers, their empty vases

With sweet love and cherished memories.
