how we were.

We kissed
- Our lips were folded notes and heartache

but we loved with faith

and fell down the branch of every tree -

But somehow we still believed.

Weren't we little soldiers of the heart?

How the brave die young.

♥

the last two lines are what complete this piece. Loved the uniqueness of "weren't we little soldiers of the heart" and how you added the common "how the brave die young"; the first line i mentioned makes the famous line have a different meaning to it; that takes talent great work here!

in my opinion the background is really distracting. it kind of hurt my eyes hahaha. the poem is really well written itself, i just think the background takes away from the beauty.
