Roses are red

Violets are blue

If I had one wish

That would ever come true

I'd wish for a world

Where people understand

To think before they speak

To stop making brands

To stop gaining pleasure

From others' pain

To be able to see

That there's nothing to gain

From pressing someone

To the point of no return

From causing a lonely person's

Heart to burn

Just stop making fun

And stop causing hate

Just  STOP

Tempting fate.

And start loving someone

Not for how they look

When it comes to people's hearts

You didn't write the book

Love someone

Whether they're gay or straight

Whether they're jocks or nerds

No matter what weight

Money doesn't matter

And neither does race

Religious or not

Be the first to embrace

Anyone and everyone

No matter how far

No matter your opinion

No matter who they are

Maybe if that happened,

If we all pitched right in,

I might believe in Valentine's day again.
A Valentine's Day card I wrote to myself.
