You say you’re afraid that you may be too broken

But darling, I see who you are

Light magically shines through the parts that are open

Revealing who you really are

You are picture frames and chandeliers

Old movies flickering in my mind

Playing sweet games of truth or dare

Clips of the past waiting to rewind

A Myriad of memories

Of my hearts unfiltered scenes

A looking glass of things unseen

And promises true love could bring

    Good job on this very beautiful and romantic poem of love and life.

  • Ah Kelli, I'm so broken there's not even dust left to get caught up in the wind.
