XOXOXO
Happy Valentine's Day!!!
I pray you if you love me, bear my joy
A little while, or let me weep your tears;
I too have seen the quavering fate destroy
Your destiny's bright spinning - the dull shears
Meeting not neatly, chewing at the thread,
Nor can you well be less aware how fine,
How staunch as wire, and how unwarranted
Endures the golden future that is mine.
I pray you for this day at least, my dear,
Fare by my side, that journey in the sun;
Else must I turn me from the blossoming year
And walk in grief the way that you have gone.
Let us go forth together to the spring:
Love must be this, if it be anything.
- Edna St Vincent Millay
