Once upon a time

by Men   Nov 27, 2007


Once upon a time
a boy staggers this earth
a sweet song he chimes
as his heart gives birth

to what he thought was love
a love so sad and pure
it was a white dove
an angel from above

if only he knew
that this wouldn't last
and before he knew
love slipped through his grasp

alone he now walks
a bitter tear he sheds
in his heart he cries
for her to shoot him dead

    What a tragic romance fell in love only for things to sour, im sorry about this. The poem itself was quite good allthough i think you trid really hard with the ryhming but it did work. the flow was good and consistant . This part of th poem was especialy good

    if only he knew
    that this wouldn't last
    and before he knew
    love slipped through his grasp

    so all in all a good job 5/5
    take care
