Portrayal of my Past (acrostic)

by Hatori   Feb 19, 2007


Perhaps I shouldn't have intervened,
Or tried to make it stop.
Re-thinking what had occurred,
Troubles me every evening.
Remembering the vision,
And examining the angles,
Yearning for it to stop.
All I ask is to be released from this horrid memory.
Leave me be, I beg of you, please.

Others grieve,
For I no longer exist.

My fate was decided,
Years in the past.

Perhaps I should have run away,
And let her die,
Siting there,
Tears falling from her eyes.

    I love acrostics
    =]
    And this one was very well written.
    One thing though,
    In the line...
    "Siting there,"
    "Siting" should be spelt "Sitting"
    Other than that, this was perfect,
    I really enjoyed reading this.
    And the title was also very good.
    Great job, Dear.

    This was good especially for the structure that you chose. "And examining the angles" this was my favorite line so powerful and unique. Nice write.
