The painted walls

say my name

- I love you

They're all the same

though the pattern reveals

a hand

delicate and firm.

 

I let it slide 

back and forth

in my mind

 

Allow me 

    to visit

     the time when I loved

 When I fell in love

  and time and money

  were nonexistent.

When waves of

worry dissipated into the

ocean of "Love Never Fails"
