POEM STARTER
Submitted by Feywild
Write a poem on the theme of sacrifices.
Would you be mine
I sit in our favorite spot
awaiting your arrival
how foolish I must be
to waste my life here
I look around at
everything that once brought us joy
but as I sit in this seat
I'm overflown with despair
The bright green trees
now rot in agony
The birds who once sang
now spread symphonies of gloom
The time begins to pass
Six, then Seven, Then eight
yet I still sit here wondering
how long until I'm enough
We used to walk everyday
We couldn't leave each other's side
But now you won't even glance my way
trying to make me a missing memory
I know you don't care
that I'm wasting my life
sitting here
waiting for you to show up
But in truth I don't care
Because you were once my everything
and I'd do anything for my everything
No matter what it costs
So though I'm sacrificing my life
knowing it's one in a million
I'll sit here waiting
waiting for your arrival again
