I Wish You Were My Valentine
I wish you were my Valentine
Though
I may not be yours,
And I may, in my ignorance,
Be speaking to
closed doors.
I have no inkling of your heart,
No hint
what you might say;
But when I think of you the sun
Will just not go
away.
There is in you a loveliness
That makes my darkness
shine,
And so I'll wait, if wait I must,
To be your
Valentine.
