The winds blew silently against her

Dress swayed, like ripples in the sea

She stood there, in the twilight

Enjoying life, unbothered, carefree

All he could see in the darkness

Were her six red balloons, in the sky

He thought about calling out to her

But all he could do was just sigh

Wondering if he should approach her

The thoughts in his head turned to mush

It would be another Valentine’s Day, spent alone

He’d have to dream, about his mystery crush

In my strongest words

I could not explain

The desire I felt

When you were not here

The longing, for your touch

Your skin pressed against me

Locked together, unbreakable

You were the reason, my breath

Yet, I could not describe it

That overwhelming feeling

That emptiness inside

When you were far away

And I searched for the answers

Judged, by my own self doubt

My only conviction, is that I

Was guilty of loving only you

I walk in the night, under the moon

Gathering my thoughts, in the dark

But he sets in the sky, much too soon

I need him, to create that spark

The one that keeps me writing

When I don’t think I have another word

The one, who makes things exciting

Yes, he calls me his little night bird

Until sun comes up, without discussion

Making the darkness fade swiftly away

I feel nothing, just moonstruck repercussions

When I have to deal with the light of day

Two ladies hung out in a window

Dressed in their best lingerie

Complained about this one certain man

Who whistled, when walking their way

What do you think, one asked

I have no idea, said the other

Perhaps he fancies the clothes you wear

I’ve heard about this, from my mother!

Oh, you’re so silly, replied her friend

But maybe I’ll give him a shot

Why not, said the woman, dressed in brown

He seems to think purple is hot!

He left before the morning light

His scent, lingered, in the air

She wrapped herself around it

To ease the chill, her body, bare

Private thoughts invaded

Her mind was set on fire

He was all she wanted near

He was her one desire

Yet, sitting alone, she pondered

Was her love for him misled?

Perhaps, she would just have to settle

For memories of him, in her bed
