We flick our wands
Abracadabra!
Happy Valentine’s!
Love awakes
Hate quiets
Just for this one day.
The one day
In the year
Where a piece of sweet chocolate
Childish as it may taste
And a fake rose
Cheesy as it may smell
All tucked inside a hastily-written letter
With a rushed “I love you”
Sugar and flowers
Even 3 words
Make magic
Magic, but only for one day.
Soon
Sunshine rainbows cupcakes glitter sparkles confetti
Settle back into
Dust
Where they came from.
The Valentine’s magic evaporates
Chocolates sour
Roses wither
“I love yous” hide
The world turns normal
Yet again.
Abracadabra!
Valentine’s nowhere to be found
As Hate
Once Again Comes
To Outlast
Love.
