Keep them close
Don’t let them stray
Before it’s too late
And precious memories slip away.
Memories are all that remain
And what I clench to stay sane.
A pinch when I start to complain
About insignificant strain.
Nothing is fail-safe
This will be our safeguard.
So I’ll seal the envelope
And pray you'll get this letter unharmed.
They’ll go to any length
To steal your precious possessions
Swiped as you stare
With a shocked expression.
You’ll suffer the same fate
Unless you stay aware
Left battered and broken
Beyond repair.
Nothing is fail-safe
This will be our safeguard.
So I’ll seal the envelope
And pray you'll get this letter unharmed.
