Paper Love

Paper Love 		


Paper flowing in the wind-you have your ups, your downs, and you turn around.

You soar without a care in the world.

You are so gentle and can be easily crushed and thrown away, 

Yet, you can come back better than you were.

You can hurt people if they touch you wrong.

You may be weakened by the rain.

You might even be torn from struggles.

But keep soaring through the air,

You might even soar all the way to paradise.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
