Tomorrow is what the happy couples and the indifferent know as Valentines day, to us poets and those forever alone, Singles Awareness Day suffices as a term...
Lounging in my favorite den,
In a dim, ambient Café,
Nearly devoid of people, nearly
The plush corner couch,
Did its best to nurse a weary soul
Released from the burden and strain
Of various trials and tenacities,
My travel companion, freed by a bargain, after much drama,
Greeted me with the same gratitude as always,
Clean, untouched, snow white pages, and a riveting tale,
Properly named Epic, lay in one hand
My narcotic of choice,
The customized Venti Caramel Vanilla Mocha Latte,
The plush corner couch,
Did its best to nurse a weary soul
Released from the burden and strain
Of various trials and tenacities,
My travel companion, freed by a bargain, after much drama,
Greeted me with the same gratitude as always,
Clean, untouched, snow white pages, and a riveting tale,
Properly named Epic, lay in one hand
My narcotic of choice,
The customized Venti Caramel Vanilla Mocha Latte,
Tailored to suit a relaxing,
Stress breaking,
Contemplation,
Stress breaking,
Contemplation,
Warms the other
The original, glazed donuts,
Dark chocolate, doused with
Fine sugar icing
Waiting to satisfy the appetite,
Lay before me,
My guardian, strong, gray suited in green,
And impenetrable,
Was planted behind me,
With no worries to bring,
It’s the perfect moment,
Except,
For that empty space,
Smugly mocking,
Beside me
The original, glazed donuts,
Dark chocolate, doused with
Fine sugar icing
Waiting to satisfy the appetite,
Lay before me,
My guardian, strong, gray suited in green,
And impenetrable,
Was planted behind me,
With no worries to bring,
It’s the perfect moment,
Except,
For that empty space,
Smugly mocking,
Beside me
