XXXI inspired by The Love Letter Project today

I know we all complain of Valentine's
Day number one on all singles shit lists,
We often spend it guzzling down cheap wine,
And trying to forget the world exists.
We blame Hallmark and chocolate companies,
For making our eyes dim and our hearts faint,
And courtly love which came on by degrees,
Then enforced celebrating martyred saints.
Yes all the happy people make us cringe,
(And come on, really, how screwed up is that?)
When we've got parent's, siblings, cousins, friends,
Who all stick by us through thick, thin, and fat.
    And just because we've got no one to screw,
    Does not mean that we can't say "I love you."
