Valentine Lost

I left the flowers on your doorstep Crushed red velvet You couldn’t say you loved me now You couldn’t say you loved me then How am I to know what lies deep in your heart? If you won’t talk to me About the pain Love is lost Never found On days like this Are never found So I take my leave And leave I must For there is nothing left For the two of us.

This cuts real deep, Stephen. I can really feel the pain. "If you won’t talk to me About the pain Love is lost, Never found..." It's always very hard losing someone, especially ones that we love dearly... Always, Laura

Wow! This is without a doubt a 7. I am so voracious for more of your lines right now and I definitely will come by to enjoy the bliss of your words.
