Your life is based on your choices, not your abilities.


Love is in the air around me
On this dreadful day.
Nothing can revive me now
Since it's Valentine's Day


My heart is shattered to infinite bits
That will never mend,
Until he returns from his tragic death
To pass me his hand


Why that driver crashed into him
I have no independent say
Except that he won't be here
With me on Valentine's Day


The impact he left on me
Will never be taken away
After he past so tragically
On that Valentine's Day

Inspiration kicked in when I thought about how tragedies can happen, even lovers can be separated by death on the holiday of love.

Wow. This is like a modern Romeo and Juliet. It's WAY better than any free verse I could write. Wonderful.
