Madeleine Bloom Paperheart
this paperheart
wasn’t big enough for love
this paperheart
could so easily burn
you did well
to hide it from me
by chance
it might have turned out real
have you ever thought of my heart breaking
into smithereens
have you ever thought of my heart beating
deep within my body
this paperheart
could too easily crease
this paperheart
fragile and pristine
you did well
to hide it from me
by chance
it might have turned out real
have you ever thought of my heart breaking
into smithereens
have you ever thought of my heart beating
deep within my body
this paperheart
if you gave it to me
this paperheart
might whisper three simple words
this paperheart
of yours
