Paper Memories

In the beginning, sometimes I left messages in the street Sweet words I wrote, for your eyes only Our childish love was pure and innocent But thoughts of love have become lonely As we grew your heart drifted Away from thoughts of me alone My messages on the street escaped your memories You never returned to my arms, your home I became a memory You were my everything, you were my start But my words are simply wasted hopes In the end you ripped my paper heart

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
