ONLY ON PAPER

Found on shredded pages a little sad, in lonesome tidbits still bound in loose strings

a distracting phone again rings I return to paper fluttering:

instead, no tiny little house guarded by a dragon, here you're the paperdoll prince cut out with pinking shears bit rough around the edges

I'm a lover waiting patiently but, I'm the paper princess once ripped from that page longing over your best kiss dream big, let's play castle!

See me try to put all these snippets together again ...

instead, I reach new paper and start to write new "them" some things can't be saved

When life and love exists only on paper, or its equivalent. Too often, we live our lives in snippets, tidbits and quotes ..... Rennie
