She took a walk one night Before the sun could raise its head When the moon was shining bright And the world was safe in bed Looking out across the field She caught a glimpse of her boy His head bowed in silence Sucked of all joy No, she didn't want to disturb him So she watched from a far Beautiful was this boy she loved And then she saw his scars He was bruised and broken As he laid there to die Her heart called out to him When she heard this cry "I'll see you 'round the bend When I finally shed this pain Sorry I have to go But I'm going insane!" She took a walk last Sunday Headed to the grave She loved him more than anything Now she’ll never be the same Looking apon his tombstone She trembles with the wind It’s ironic how the good loose their life And the others watch it end She must look so calm And ready to get back to her life But underneath all her words She will never again be alright Because she’s lost the only thing That ever mattered at all And now she makes her final choice And cries out to me as she falls "I'll see you 'round the bend When I finally shed this pain Sorry I have to go But I'm going insane!" I took a walk this morning Remembering that night And how she chose to leave me But still can haunt my life Staring out across the sea I can't help but shed these tears My head is bowed in reverence Trying to banish all my fears I know I must seem nonchalant With iron bars around my soul So confident in my own skin But the truth is not what’s told I am weak and bloody Ready to just lie here and die My heart breaks into a thousand pieces As I scream out my last cry "I'll see you 'round the bend When I finally shed this pain Sorry I have to go But I'm going insane!" |

Yes, this poem is so beautiful and sad to read! I loved this one though; It's kind of ironic, you know? I love the sad poems... Don't change anything on this one, in fact if you do I will call in the change nothing protestors to protest! "I pray thee, O God, that I |

Haley, where have you been hiding this talent? Because it certainly doesn't show in Language Arts. Hehe, small joke. Really, this is excellent. |
