POEM STARTER
Submitted by Feywild
Write a poem on the theme of sacrifices.
Give, Take, and Break
Give you my devotion and love forever
Down on my knees, I would bleed for you
Whenever you falter, we will stick together
Scared of speaking up, but for you I do
Thinking of a planet where the stars can sing
On a mountaintop, I carry you, so you can scream
You’re tired, yet smile, and give me a ring
Forever bound at our fingers, feels like a dream
Take me in your arms on a somber day
Turn the night into a movie, like a fantasy
But a dragon is waiting and you cannot stay
Its ferocious fire doesn’t come in scantily
Bustling bickering in my mind doubting
Tethered at the heart, but the string is loose
The rattle through my bones, the failure shouting
Supposed to carry your burdens. Was that a ruse?
Break your chains with time to breakdown
I will do all the work, so you stay around
The beast of your job is wearing you down
My sick tired love, with you I am found
You’ve always been wonderous, worried, and weary
Please close your eyes and dream my romancer
I have sacrificed my adventures, but that’s not why I’m teary
Smiling for me before you succumb to cancer
