the furry the furry help me now
for I am a piece of paper anyhow
I am going to die a miserable pain
one not lost one not gained
I am a piece of paper I am white and trim
I am a piece of paper so small so thin
closer and closer the shredder is near
I am going to die die I fear
stacking me gently on the desk at a time
scares me timid of this rhyme
but my owner puts me in a desk
and now my fears are put to rest

My only love sprung from my only hate. Too early seen unknown and known too late.

I like this beacuse it has good rhythm. The only thing I would do to make it better would be to add some commas.
