POEM STARTER

Submitted by Margaret Sok

“You’ve come back, but I no longer need you.”

Write a poem or short story including this line.

I Move On

You’ve come back

But I no longer need you

For when the water drys

The land adapts

And when the rain returns

The land floods

I cannot afford to flood

So I’ll put up a dam

I will not allow you back in

For I am better off without you

You suffocated me

But now I breath

An I will continue to breathe

Like the wind blows

Until I no longer can

And then I will leave this world

With you

And this life

Forever behind me
