BUT NOT FOR LONG

Folder: 
A YOUNG POET

You stepped into my
life,
A foolish reminder.
But not for long.
You stepped into my
heart,
Making bold advances.
But not for long.
You forced the door
open,
With many promises,
But not for long
You played on my heart
strings,
Without my permission,
But not for long.
Strings can be easily
broken,
Sometimes hard to repair,
But not for long.

beautiful and haunting, so subtle in words yet deep in meaning.
