All those old pictures crinkled at the ends…
I tore to pieces!
The albums bare…with nothing to show
Of my life so long ago
Keeping only few things as memories
…memories created throughout my non-fairytale life
A set of old teacups given to me so long ago…
Six small glasses… one broke, by a small hand
…broken in little pieces
…like my heart,
after that person, who I loved so…passed away!
Forty years…on a shelf of the old china buffet
So many memories held...
So many captured on paper…
But time goes on…
The pictures are torn…
The teacups given away!
Dedicated to: My grandmother Kujtime Mance, the torn pictures, and the old teacups given to her on her wedding day.
