Roses have thorns
And violets turn brown,
Hearts get torn
And ships go down

Apples go rotten,
Strings will break,
Words are forgotten-
We make mistakes

Sunrise to sunset,
Twilight to dawn,
We cannot stop it-
Life goes on

Smiles are sticky,
Sunshine can burn,
Love can be tricky-
Some never learn

Roses you hand-picked
Decay into ground,
None of it’s perfect-
Look around

Corniness, flattery
Make me feel sick,
Once out of batteries
You’re just a d**k

Meaning is twisted,
Trust is used,
Aid, resisted
Love, abused

Humans are flawed,
Beauty is pain,
Self is a god,
My loss is your gain

Love can’t be trusted
Only hate,
For action we lusted
And sealed our fate...

I guess by all this, what I’m trying to say
Is I’m thinking of you on this Valentine’s day
I’ve no perfumed hearts and no roses of white-
No, I wrote you a valentine
That bites.
