Love! Is it?

Broken & bruised

Abandoned by you.

Torn precisely like a perforated sheet

Blown over to the edge

Clinging on to hope

Thinking is overrated

So is waiting.

No one comes back

Only memories left behind

To lighten up the dark alleys

My heart wanders to now.

I will call out again

I know I will

Hope you believe me this time

And not dismiss my pleads

As not worth your dime.
