I Wish I Could Meet You - Valentine’s Day Special

Valentine’s Day Special

Feb 9, 2025

2 Mins Read

Across the way

My eyes locked

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

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6HB7pq0KC

Her fingers clasped onto the stone

Trying to find way to hold her back

A sign of reluctance?

A sign of guilt?

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA12cdfQ2C

Her hair grazed her skin,

jagged like glass

Splitting the skin

Eyes succumbed to toxins

The stare of strangers

The weight of pain

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG0vsSFQUG

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

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUUlHjCCCI

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

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NnUuK5AIm

Sometimes there are haters

And sometimes you can love them

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

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMupQg2GgjL

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

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnRboJgdxn

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?

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL2ahrTCu3

What to do

I stand up without thinking

I advance till my hand overlaps hers

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22cidRHBdf

Her eyes lock into mine

I feel her imaginary arms holding onto me

Clutching to my body

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBCg9ZTJbe

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

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Y5Rq92qqi

I hold her against me

A hold of hope

I watch as a man approach,

he slips a rose between my fingers

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy9YTBECwY

Her eyes drifted up

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

I slip the flower into her hand

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU7vbUjV5O

This, ‘are you sure?’ Coming to play

Will she change her mind?

Will I go with her or stay with her?

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxeaC14zk3

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

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxOyBWw4fu

That day was Valentine’s Day

Even if it wasn’t official

It was ours

9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2t1uYJnVB

The day we met,

The day I saved her

And perhaps,

The day she saved me
