Paper Heart

Paper Heart

I am translucent and delicate,
so easy to crush with the softest lie
What think you of me?
A fool? A lost soul?
A love? A friend?

As I stare into your elusive eyes and beg to see forever
To wear your heart as my shelter and protection
from whichever harsh storms life will throw us
Hold this paper heart, hide it from the darkness
Allow my tender soul to be your haven
and you shall never be alone again
