[insert a cheesy/romantic title here]

Seriously I suck at titles



You knew I was irreparably broken
And still you tried to fix me
Refused to let me lose my hope and
Showed me things I never thought I’d see

I’d cry myself to sleep
In your arms, under you watchful gaze
I wondered if you had gotten yourself in too deep?
No, you showed me your determination and it got us through those days

When I called your name, you were there
When I screamed in pain, you held me
If I was alone, you called just to say you cared
When all was dark, you helped me see

There were never any monsters
No ghosts, ghouls or killers
Just a horrible, irreversible disease
Which left me broken and shattered on my knees.

When it finally took me, you felt weak
I’d sit by your side and talk to you
I’d hug and sing to you, though you couldn’t hear me
I think you felt me though, I hope I helped you through

Now a decade on, you’re sitting at my grave
I’m sitting atop my headstone, smiling down on you
You haven’t changed a bit, in ten years, you haven’t aged
Suddenly you smile, and look up at me, you don’t see me though, why are you so happy?

You’re off back to your house, with little me in tow
I’m wondering why you’re laughing, it’s unlike you, I know
You’re rummaging in your draw, the one I know holds a gun
And suddenly I realise, with life and love, you’re done.

You sit down, load and cock it
Still smiling, you put it to your head.
“I’m coming sweetheart” you say, and pull the dreaded trigger
It’s all in slow motion as you fall onto the bed

And suddenly you’re next to me, holding me tight
I realise you didn’t give up your fight
You didn’t just lose your life
But instead, gained another here tonight

I really, really liked it! It reminded me of something, but I can't think what. *Tips hat*

That's awesome Devastatingly sweet.

Thank you guys, glad you liked it

That..is...so..fucking....wow...I cant put it into words.

DARLING!

I'm proud to call you my wife .

What a great poem, baby. You took the classic tail (the sort of... Romeo & Juliet esque thing...) and reinvented it.

I really loved it, really. It really moved me (teary sensations).



(I think what is important to those who read... though i can't speak for you.. is they've really gotta fallow the puncuation in the poem to get the sound and feel of it ... ya get?)

YES! I was thinking about Romeo and Juliet when I wrote it, but then I thought of how it's more likely to be these days... And I had a cigarette in my hand so cancer and all that shit came to mind... And Keith telling me how much I mean to him and ajhgaljdfghaldfgb never mind.

But thank you all again for the sweet comments.

Thats beautiful. ^_^

Sweet
