PRECIOUS: a short love poem—Pawners Paper

A short love poem that involves a guy professing his love to a lady

PRECIOUS

Things I'd have said if I had another chance:

P-lease, listen to my stuttering lips

R-ead the message encrypted underneath my tongue and

E-mbrace the words for what they stand for.

C-astigate me, but not for long for

I- myself is unstable in the ebb of the emotion fabricated by my dispersed mind.

O-pen up , not just a little but a little far more

U-nderstand me, because I'm just another shy prisoner in this dungeon of love

S-truggling to live beyond the sentenced years with unfettered heart.
