Perfect Imperfections

The greatest love has no chance

By Lisa AkemiPublished 4 years ago • 1 min read

He wrote her each day

Five word sentences in prose

It flowed like water.

She wrote back each day

Five word poetry in rhyme

It stuck like the earth.

It made them happy

And breathed life into their love

Like air, natural.

Until he left her

His past could not escape him

Fire burned his joy.
