Closed Pages Poem by Maia Padua

A story once told
Words once cherished
A love once blossomed
In her diary's pages
Fading, as it ages.

Promises once uttered
The love once promised
Slipped through its grasp
Carried by the passing breeze
To the valley of forgetfulness

Love perished, as time passes
Though closing its pages
Of the love once blossomed
Yet, a smile still stay
Friendship still remains
Another story, be written in her diary.

A new day, a new story
Of acceptance and friendship
Leaving behind that love and his memories
To embrace life with a new face, a new day
Another story in the pages of her diary
A new life within her, in her sanctuary.
