OPTION 3
From the moment I laid eyes on you
I knew I was yours forever.
Nothing and no one could tear us apart.
I wanted us to live a happy life.
You help me in your arms.
You told me you’d never let me go.
We were always on the go
Every time we saw each other we’d say “I love you.”
We were each others life.
Never were we apart,
We had promised each other forever.
I would one day fall asleep in your arms.
That day I eventually ended up sleeping in your arms.
The next morning you had to go.
It would be the first time we were apart.
I felt like everything came crashing down in my life.
Before you left I said one last “I love you.”
What would happen to our forever?
You told me we wouldn’t last forever.
I cried once more in your arms.
You were my life.
My life and I would be apart.
Angry, I pushed you away and told you to go.
For the first time I realized I really grew up for you.
I didn’t think life would be so hard without you.
My heart promised you forever.
My heart wouldn’t stop even if we were apart.
You helped me live my life.
I missed being held in your arms.
I never wanted you to go.
The day that my arms had pushed you to go,
My life had fallen apart.
I whispered one last “I will love you forever.”

I'm crying. Does that tell you enough?
This was just so...incredible.
It was so packed with emotions and it was just beautiful.
It makes me feel what the characters are feeling and it makes me so sad. It was such a pretty poem for me.
I found that the way you wrote the poem is sort of...normal. That's not meant to be an insult, but usually in poems that are different I like them more.
Not this one. The...idk plot? in this one was so sad.
You wrote it so beautifully for us to get into and it was just great.
Oh heck I have no idea how to explain
I just loved it.
Thanks so much for entering!
xoxo
