FORGET ME NOT


Forget me not
I am named

My wild spirit
Won't be tamed

Those who've tried
Have been burned

For me no man has yearned

Will you try sir
Will you try

My wings are strong
and I will fly

you see me now
proud and bold

so you think me
harsh and cold

But

If you saw my frightened spirit
You'd leave in pity

I could not bear it

So I say you won't come near me

The price of pride

Costs too dearly.

~ Angela Erin Burke ~

NOT bad at all, I like this piece.

what better compliment is there other than to be unforgetable? Thank you both.

A nice poem. I enjoyed the concept behind this one...the flow was smooth and it went together nicely.
