Skip It

Flowers, diamonds, candy hearts

Endearing cards, chocolates and art

Save them all for someone who cares

I have no sweetheart anywhere

Wear your rings and smiles too

What else can crazy people do?

Watching from a far off spire

All who ride on their desires

I see the sickness I deplore

and I couldn't detest it any more

So foolish in that blind pursuit

Cursed when Cupid dared to shoot

It is a wound and I shall dodge

rather than ever wear a corsage

fit and stuck on funeral dress

er.. my mistake... a wedding vest

Vows of love for eternity

But only one vow I make for me

To live in peace my own way

I will skip it - your Valentines Day
