little and lost things

A string of fairy lights of stars,
an old photograph.
Perhaps a letter,
or an old sweater.

A box of things,
containing polaroids, post-its,
of little things I leave in your hands.
And music from my favourite bands.

Underneath your bed,
collecting dusts, it's tightly shut.
Unopened, forgotten, left.
An unwanted treasure chest.

For all one knows,
maybe one day, you'll stumble upon,
The lost little things
that our love has forgone.

And remember what it was like;
the fire we toyed with,
the spark we ignited,
and the light we omitted.
