Treasure Trove

I went to look for my treasure trove 

I had it hidden away in a small alcove

Found a poem that was in complete

Decided to finish it and make it sweet

It was about true love and friendship

That was half done because my mind did slip

To leave it this way would make me feel hollow

With my heart full now my words would easily flow

I wrote everything down that you meant to me

There was so much to say the lines came easily

I spoke my mind of you and poured out my soul

Polished my verse and finally made my verses whole
