damn valentine

i felt fine all day.
i was in a good mood.
i knew what day it was.
i did my show.
then he had to say "well, it's valentine's day, at least give me a hug"
and he got on the subway, and i walked home alone past window displays of hearts.

I don't understand Valentine's Day and all the stock people, single or coupled, put into it. Just don't celebrate it or pay attention to it either way and then there's no problem. I didn't even realize it was Valentine's day until a friend of ours lamented the fact that she was single and started talking about finding her soulmate. Then I threw up in my mouth a little at the word and went on with my life.

yeah, it's silly. But it's depressing to be reminded that you have no one to ignore valentines day with. It makes one feel lonely.
