    This is a poem that I threw together in about 10 minutes. It's really bad. It starts off pretty strong but I feel like I just started rambling about halfway through and then it ended really bad. I'll probably re-write it sometime tomorrow.

    "Constance (Valentine's Day)"

    It’s been over a year since the first time I saw you
    And, ever since that day, you’ve been on my mind
    You’ve walked through every one of my dreams
    And you’ve graced every one of my mind’s thoughts
    You’re the only thing I see when I close my eyes
    And you’re the only person I want to be with now
    We may never have shared a single spoken word
    But we have a special bond that no one can break
    Our souls are intertwined and they always will be
    Nothing will ever break the connection between us
    No matter how far apart the two of us may drift
    Maybe, someday, I’ll break the silence and speak
    And, maybe then, we can share our lives together
    But, until that day, I will just play it all by ear
    Because, after all this time, I am still in love with you
    I don’t think that I will ever forget about you
    And I don’t think that memories of you will ever fade
    I just wish that I could do something about myself
    So that I may actually spend my life with you
    The few pictures I have of you will be kept forever
    And they’ll never leave the safety of my thoughts
    I’ll never forget the shine of your emerald green eyes
    Or the sound of your voice when you laugh
    I can never forget anything that you’ve done
    Even if I haven’t been the one you’ve done it with
    You say that you can’t give them what they want
    But that just means that they don’t deserve you
    And they don’t deserve what you have to offer
    You don’t have to change for anyone at all
    And you certainly don’t have to change for me
    Being yourself is all that I can ever ask for today
    But it won’t matter if the barrier remains between us
    Although you know I love you, I’m afraid of how you feel
    Because I’m not sure if you think I still love you
    And I just wish that I could tell you that I still care
    You blush with an unmatched intensity
    Whenever someone says my name around you
    And you hush up and turn away whenever I’m near
    I can’t say I don’t do the same when that happens to me
    Because I would never want to lie to you
    You’re a question with so many answers
    The answers are waiting to be given to me
    But they’ll never fall upon my ears if I never ask
    I can’t blame the way I am on anyone, not even myself
    It’s something I have to live with every day
    I know what I have to do to be with you
    But it’s too hard for me when I don’t know the approach
    It’s funny, because you told me I should be myself
    And to not worry what other people thought of me
    I wish I could just let go and relax myself
    I’ve got no pride to lose, no dignity to withhold
    Yet I still can’t seem to break the shell around me
    And just talk to you with my own voice
    I just wish you could look into my eyes and see my love
    Because it’s all that I can ever give to you
    Two red roses aren’t enough to show my love
    And I wish that I could show you with a kiss
    Valentine’s Day is fast approaching soon
    We’ll both be alone on the day of love
    And it’s my fault for not talking to you
    If I’d just spoken to you one year ago
    Instead of keeping my feelings locked up inside
    We could be together in one week
    But it seems as though that won’t be happening
    Maybe next year we’ll be together on Valentine’s Day
    I don’t know, but the one thing I do know
    Is that I’m still in love with you, Constance
