Valentinian’s Valentine

The world’s not the only place
Love becomes a blazing argument
Extracting the bravery of being wrong
 
My heart too is such a planet
Madly orbiting its globe of light
The self is such a selfish sun
 
Over and over I read
And speak them to myself
Your complicated texts
 
Sent in distress
Because you were dying
Because love is always dying
 
Trying to calm myself into it
Your presence as terrifying
As your absence
