Lines and rhymes

Box

A loose button of that shirt
And the shirt you put away
An empty bottle of your cologne
The tie that went missing that day

Napkins you used to wipe the froth
And that paper cup of coffee
An all dried up colour marker
And a sketch you made for me

Two movie tickets that we bought
And caps of all the drinks we had
The gift wrap which you used
To gift me things I already had

Tissue paper which wiped your tear
The pin that fell off your cap
The first page of your notepad
And your old watch's broken strap

A bunch of all the ice cream sticks
And many wrappers of chocolate
Many receipts and old coupons
From the restaurants at we ate

All the notes that we passed
All the selfies that we took
All the letters with envelopes
All pasted in a pretty book

They tear my heart to shreds
All these memories that I've kept
So I put them all in a box
And leave it at your doorstep
