Packages Poem by alex haywood

Packages

Rating: 5.0


I wrapped my skin
around my heart
lest the blood ooze out
and dirty the ground
of my courage

I unwrapped the
thoughts of love off my mind
and tossed them about
just so much trash
to be left
on the ground
of memories of you

I took the memories
of you and wrapped them
in a pretty package
to be opened
when the skin
has done it's job
and the trash
has been picked up
