Lost Pages

Tinita Yarris 1997 (Lorain, Ohio)

Free verse
i lost the pages of the love i wrote you,
the love that made me,
the love i so freely gave to you,
and i don't regret my time dedicated
my determination ,
my heart given,
borrowing a promise,
and you one day returned it,
love between my ideas of you is infinite and endless,
i never stopped writing you,
i just lost the pages....
