Why?

Why?

A Poem by Sophie
"

for a contest, and it's horrible.

"

Why             would

You do this                               To me? When

You know full well                 That all I’ve ever done

Is love you. And only you.                                         I woke you up in the morn’

With a kiss on the nose and                                     lipstick on your cheek. I helped

You, when you were sick in bed.                            And when you were stressed from

Work. I taught you how to ice skate                       I held your hand when you fell, so I’d fall

Too. When it rained, you’d dance with me        And I’d lean against you and cry tears of joy

Because you were mine. They mixed with    the rain. And we’d go inside and dance again

After that day, we both got sick. Laid in bed,    and watched Disney movies all day. But

Why? After all that time, and all the love     would you try to make me cry? On your

Birthday, I threw a surprise. But I got one     back. You came into the room

And my hopeful groom, was kissing      someone else. Someone who

Was not me. I hoped, that maybe        It was a mistake. But I

Could not escape my fate.       You lied to me. You

Have from the start.      And now, all I’m left

With is a beat up, sad,   used, done,

Broken and cracked        heart.

That was in love    and for

Evermore.   Always

Will be

The poem was actually pretty good. Shaping the poem as a broken heart was a nice touch.

This is artful. Both your expression in words, and your imagery of the heart, are fragmented--as a broken heart would sound and appear.

I really liked this, even the from that its in. you can tell just how much the girl loves him and how much she hurts when she lost him. Great job :)
