A Crumpled Piece Of Paper

A Crumpled Piece Of Paper

A sweet introduction to your soul,
An anchor for the purest thoughts,
A rendezvous with the tale of love,
Its presence dignified the lords and tsars
... But now lies a crumpled piece of paper!

A colorful blend of poets' thoughts,
A messenger of the holy sermons,
A medium for the artists' expressions,
A beginning to a sweet little dream!
... But now lies a crumpled piece of paper!

A friend of every innocent eyed child,
A tutor to the wise and blessed,
An inspiration for a life long renaissance,
Eternal like the drops of dew,
... But now lies a crumpled piece of paper!

How long does it take?
For the things to change...
For pain to unmask your life...
For a silent death to arrive...
From life to a crumpled piece of paper!
