Celebrate Heartache

By Syda Productions

In response to Ragtag Daily Prompt Tuesday – The word CELEBRATE
Posted by Perpetua

Oh holiday
how you rend
and tear a tortured
soul

Reminding us
unencumbered
by loves vows
and chains

Little cards
with floaty hearts
resplendent in bright
red

Only serve
to emphasize
no flowers or candy
have we

When finally
this day is done
the calendar reminds
us cruelly

That we are alone
no one is at home
next holiday we’ll
still be lonely
