till we meet,
time will just crawl,

the days will be spent in day-dreaming,

the nights in fantasy-land!
my heart beats at a slower pace,

except when i hear your voice;

at first i was a little frightened
to share myself with you,

but you soon laid all my fears to rest.





till we meet,
i know that i’ll miss you every moment of the day,

minutes seem to be hours,
hours run into months

each month seems to stretch into eternity...

sacrifices and compromises are the order of the day,

but hopefully one day, they too shall be gone.
i look up at the stars in the sky,

but i guess they’ll only sparkle brightly when i’m with you.





till we meet,
through the fog that envelops me,

i stare, sightless at the horizon knowing that you are right there,

the food i eat, tasteless,

till you are there by my side to share it with;

i am tempted to drink myself into oblivion,

hoping that will send me spinning into orbit

and maybe land in a place close to you...

where your waiting arms gather me close, never to let go...





till we meet,
i will not feel whole, my world seems incomplete,
am waiting for that glorious day
when our eyes first make contact across a room,
and recognize each other instantly,

wide smiles on our faces, almost breaking into a run

to cover the remaining distance and turn it into closeness.

our bodies and souls collide in blissful memories

of words oft-spoken virtually, but now translated into reality,
”i love you”....the words will take on another dimension,
au revoir till we meet again in the real world....

the history of valentine's day

every february, across the country, candy, flowers, and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of st. valentine. but who is this mysterious saint and why do we celebrate this holiday? the history of valentine's day -- and its patron saint -- is shrouded in mystery. but we do know that february has long been a month of romance. st. valentine's day, as we know it today, contains vestiges of both christian and ancient roman tradition. so, who was saint valentine and how did he become associated with this ancient rite? today, the catholic church recognizes at least three different saints named valentine or valentinus, all of whom were martyred.


one legend contends that valentine was a priest who served during the third century in rome. when emperor claudius ii decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men -- his crop of potential soldiers. valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. when valentine's actions were discovered, claudius ordered that he be put to death.

other stories suggest that valentine may have been killed for attempting to help christians escape harsh roman prisons where they were often beaten and tortured.


according to one legend, valentine actually sent the first 'valentine' greeting himself. while in prison, it is believed that valentine fell in love with a young girl -- who may have been his jailor's daughter -- who visited him during his confinement. before his death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter, which he signed 'from your valentine,' an expression that is still in use today. although the truth behind the valentine legends is murky, the stories certainly emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic, and, most importantly, romantic figure. it's no surprise that by the middle ages, valentine was one of the most popular saints in england and france.

the history of saint valentine's day

valentine's day started in the time of the roman empire. in ancient rome, february 14th was a holiday to honour juno. juno was the queen of the roman gods and goddesses. the romans also knew her as the goddess of women and marriage. the following day, february 15th, began the feast of lupercalia.

the lives of young boys and girls were strictly separate. however, one of the customs of the young people was name drawing. on the eve of the festival of lupercalia the names of roman girls were written on slips of paper and placed into jars. each young man would draw a girl's name from the jar and would then be partners for the duration of the festival with the girl whom he chose. sometimes the pairing of the children lasted an entire year, and often, they would fall in love and would later marry.

under the rule of emperor claudius ii rome was involved in many bloody and unpopular campaigns. claudius the cruel was having a difficult time getting soldiers to join his military leagues. he believed that the reason was that roman men did not want to leave their loves or families. as a result, claudius cancelled all marriages and engagements in rome. the good saint valentine was a priest at rome in the days of claudius ii. he and saint marius aided the christian martyrs and secretly married couples, and for this kind deed saint valentine was apprehended and dragged before the prefect of rome, who condemned him to be beaten to death with clubs and to have his head cut off. he suffered martyrdom on the 14th day of february, about the year 270. at that time it was the custom in rome, a very ancient custom, indeed, to celebrate in the month of february the lupercalia, feasts in honour of a heathen god. on these occasions, amidst a variety of pagan ceremonies, the names of young women were placed in a box, from which they were drawn by the men as chance directed.

the pastors of the early christian church in rome endeavoured to do away with the pagan element in these feasts by substituting the names of saints for those of maidens. and as the lupercalia began about the middle of february, the pastors appear to have chosen saint valentine's day for the celebration of this new feast. so it seems that the custom of young men choosing maidens for valentines, or saints as patrons for the coming year, arose in this way.
