Shredded Paper (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
When we were kids living next door,
Life was fun and I couldn’t ask for more,
There were moments I think I loved you,
But I was a kid and didn’t know what to do,
Remember the hearts we cut out one day,
You shredded yours and said, “No way!”
It hurt to know that the hearts we shared,
Were easily shredded because no one cared,
What about the moments we spent in the mist,
Or the conversations we had before we kissed,
I was determined that our love would grow,
I wasn’t prepared to hear you say, “No!”
My eyes, my arms, and my heart, too,
Were all dedicated to loving you,
I was torn and shredded by your parting words,
There was nothing loving in what I heard,
Where was the phrase, “I’ll love you forever,”
Or “Our love is solid, it can never be severed,”
Even though my heart beats steady and true,
You’ve shredded the love that I gave to you.
