love is a blank paper
waiting for you to
fill it up
with anything you bring
for it
then to get ripped beacause
you forgot to put your
name on it
and love is a fire
when add up all
the lies
it gets weaker
when you add up all
the good things
it gets stronger

in this i refer to the fire as strength in love and the blank paper saying when it gets ripped that's what my teachers say they will do if they forget to put your name on a paper
