Dear Valentine…: A poem 

You could always be below your best 

Love could be closet, not a harvest 

And could you be for a few, and not the rest? 

Is your love selfish? I’m sorry, I jest 

God could be double-edged, does he forgive? 

Did he create us so that we love and live? 

Is life a penal colony? Is love defeat? 

Can it persevere as the noblest feat? 

Dear Valentine, what bothers me the most 

is: you are celebrated, but you are not the host 

You are not the flesh of the feast’s roast 

For, love is ephemeral, and lust is the toast
