On Valentine's Day
I close my eyes, you are there
Holding someone else

As Jacob pointed out... it's a Senryu... Senryu tend to focus on human nature and Haiku on Nature/Seasonal imagery.. with more practice these differences will become familiar..

Nevertheless, again paints a picture in my head..and nicely sums up how my past few V-Days have gone by...Keep up.

A sad ending for the day of Valentine's day. Hard to be the observer. Nice use of words made the reader feel the emotion and the thoughts. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

such a sad senryu...

Valentines Day can be the worst for many---many just want to get past it...

too much pain, too many memories...

i've had more bad ones than good ones, and can relate...
