My Contentious Valentine

[LongMan]

G'day All,

Its wet and rainy here in California. I can't make it home for Xmas but hope everyone back home makes Christmas special for those they love. As for this poem...its a long story but some may understaned where this is coming from. I have a digital sketch somewhere on this computer but an upgrade has blocked me from all my files. So when I access them I will add to this post.

Merry Xmas all!


My Contentious Valentine.

To my contentious valentine, when are you really th-e-re?
This beaten heart is forever twisted, dashed, and unprepared;
for your love which was so faked, never genuine to my b-blue!
Yet I always thought nothing but the earthly good of you
Simply I ask,” when did you ever, ever, truly, truly c-a-re?”

O...as my poor soul now falls apart,
but where is this love's...true intuition?
My love is so broken, and in a total free fall
I'd just wish it would just end to this my blue all...

Oh, gone and forever damaged is this poor blue heart
Your sour words have simply ripped and torn me apart
Those many lies now come thick and much to fast
Its so now clear to me, we must now forever part
This sour love is lost to those old times in our past

O...as my poor soul falls apart,
but where is this love's...true intuition?
My love is so broken, and in a total free fall
I'd just wish it would just end to this my blue all...

Oh empty wishes yearn for those departed joys of us
But tattered are my cries for your distant twisted trust
My tears for you has now turned to this a horrid rust
These blue thoughts haunt and many lost to gusty wild wind
This tempest comes with memories of your wicked therein!

O...as my poor soul falls apart,
but where is this love's...true intuition?
My love is so broken, and in a total free fall
I'd just wish it would just end to this my blue all...

Oh when I smiled all you did is act the fool
So why was I ever good enough for you?
God, I wish I'd never met you from the start
I'd often wished you'd just simply...depart
But then how could you just throw me all away?

O...as my poor soul falls apart,
but where is this love's...true intuition?
My love is so broken, and in a total free fall
I'd just wish it would just end to this my blue all...

I worked so very very hard...to always make you stay
I'd shower you in flowers, jewels, and gifts on my little pay
Yet destroying hearts seems so very easy for you to flay
My tragedy is the courting you, so others always seem to win
Unhappily these tears drip; as my love of you is my blue sin.

Contentious valentine, my heart is very blue from the likes of you...

There's nothing like a broken heart to bring out the poing pen.

Merry Christmas from Oz to you Phil.
