Reflecting On Love

If I delivered my heart to you in an envelope
would you open it?
or would you just throw it away
without looking back
discarding it..like it was nothing
and forgetting all that we had

I think you would
as you are not the same person that 
I knew back then
Someone else has taken your place
he is cold and he has a blackened heart
and I really don't recognise you anymore...

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.
