Valentine Of Mine Poem by Paige Nielsen

You seem to have given up on caring
Your heart’s pricklier than a Rose of Sharon
You shun all my adoration
You broke the mirror you hid your face in
Keep all your thoughts veiled from my sight
All my instincts screaming “flight! ”
But I cannot release my faith
It silhouettes my soul as if a wraith
I cannot be still and content with this
You’re father, son, holy ghost, and witness
I love you, I love you, I love you still
It is my soul that you do kill
Please mend my bones and crumpled heart
’Lest I am lost to Cupid’s dart
