You wore the sun
the day
we kissed,
the sea sang
a lullabye, the
sky rolled like
blue marbles, the color
of your grinning eyes,
and you squinted,
when you snuck
your arm
around me,
you said you'd
marry me,i'd be
your girl, and we'd
be together
till the end of
time,
then the moving
men captured you
with their giant
claws, they wisked
you off, leaving
me sobbing, waving
goodbye,
so i stuck my tongue out,
at you, at life,  and
wore long brown pigtails,
and black maryjanes,
on that day in may
when you owned my
first broken heart.

OMIGOSH! How could such a sweet poem have no replies yet? I adore this and the innocent picture it creates for me.


I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU!

Sometimes sad beginnings have happy endings. Who knows, maybe the moving man will deliver your boyhood sweetheart back. Really well done work and touching!

Inkedgoddess, again you touch me with your powerful tale. Ahh those moments when the world really seemed to crash and we would not believe that the sun would rise again ...
Love, Margherita
