Love Poem: A Little Piece

A Little Piece

it's just a little piece of memory I'm trying to relieve
way back when the path was uncluttered--the sky, cobalt blue
when the stars glowed in the sky, underneath a crescent moon
a little piece of yesterday, that little piece of you

it's just a little piece of heartbreak that I try to bury
along with golden fantasy, a dreamworld that I live in
when all the doors were open and the dance was still brand new
it lays like dust on the saloon floor waiting to be swept away

it's just a little piece of me wanting a little piece of you
to keep me as a treasure and cherish what we knew
it's such a thin line that connects, a shred of honest truth
it's just a little piece of my heart now framed upon my wall
