Paper Love

You are the love of my life
I give you my endless love
I am your paper love
You can tear me up
You can put me aside and throw me away
I am your origami
you can shape me into anything you want
Every word I say to you is special and memorable like a child's first
Why can't you be more like that?
I will love you till my last breathe
I will love you till all my corners are bent

Great poem. It's a shame but I'm sure a lot of people can relate. 

You can tear me up
You can put me aside and throw me away
I am your origami
you can shape me into anything you want


 

Sometimes we just want to give it all to somebody, even if it means we are destoryed. Great analogy. Love it.

I think as writers we are doomed to want to give it all even if it gets us hurt, to start with we are expressive, but even beyond that we always know the best poetry comes from the deepest feelings so we tend to wane towrads deeper feelings. And as humans we tend to want to be wanted, and often treat love very black and white, in or out, there or not, so giving all just makes sense I guess.


Much Love

I love this poem! The pen's reply....

I will love you till our ink has faded and I am transpartnet like lace

till you can see through me and know everything about me

how my atoms combine

I will love you even when you forget me in a pile on your desk and spend your evenings penning better things

I will love you until my creases tear and I am pieces of confetti thrown to the wind to make you smile

I will love you

I will love

I will fold in your hands like prayers sent to God

I will be your paper love

So write me

like the poem I am

and I will absord you like the poet you are


Much Love

Ashley

Fitz - I Liked All The Lines Equally

The paper imagery is nice, the sentiment a bit altruistic but to save the day, she is also admonished to be the same, which may lead to love everlasting - ah to dream. You made me dream - that is difficult to do, poet. "...I am your origami..." Insert scream here! Cool write - Lady A
