Plated Hearts

Plated Hearts




Plate.. laid down flat. 
Two hearts.. in such a mess. 

One has been chipped - from love then from truth. 
Then the other is pulling away - from the bond of their own glue. 

Both sweet together - they are alike. 
A perfect couple - in their own sight.

A chipped heart - can always mend. 
It takes two - to forgive then began again.

Yes, how we can break the fine China of our relationship sometimes, can dismantle it with one swoop of the tongue or our actions. I like that you have written from the heart, and you did it with an interesting style. Thank you for your kind comments on Dreamer, always appreciated.
