"You Won't Stop Loving"

Small crimes, paper cuts,
blinding pain from breathing.
I didn't notice at the time,
I am naive.

Your heart made of paper,
no way to erase
what I wrote.
Fold it away to hide the ink,
others won't see
and you'll forget.

Future will assail you,
rip across edges,
fray and crack and smudge.
Who will love you then?

Someday I'll return
to the heart that broke my skin.
New name, new face, new universe,
my signature wihtin.
Cilla, thank you. That's exactly it.
