Imaginary World

A poem about my exlover. It was written alongside the drawing that came before it to illustrate my feelings and appreciation.

When you gave me your heart, you planted a flower.

When you told me you loved me, you gave me the sun.

When you promised to hold me, you gave me the hills.

When I went away for awhile, you gave me a pet.

For each hand you held when I came back, you gave me a moon.

To remind me that your love is forever, you built me a stream.

When I was worried about the future, you built me the path.

To calm my nightmares, you gave me a cloud.

When you promised to protect me, you planted a tree.

But you couldn't give me the stars.

So, you cut them from paper, tied strings to their middles, and hung each of them up, one by one, just so I could have a perfect world.

Author's Note

Old poem. The poem lasted longer than the relationship.

This was cute; I liked it a lot. And I'm sorry, but your "Author's Note" absolutely cracked me up. Idk why. I'm in a weird mood.

But the imagery was adorable, and the poem itself was insanely sweet. :] Yay, thumbs WAY way up.
