For You, My Valentine...

because love
has betrayed me

does not mean
that i shall betray you too

because love has denied me its love
does not mean that i must not give this love to you

for i have known love and its pains
and having known all these

i have decided to be different
to love and to love no matter what cost shall it take me.
