Full of lost stories and meanings complex
It sings of a life, flowing with pride
It mirrors a love, forseeing a bride

A band had been chosen, the day was so near
The music was playing, the moon was a sphere
The beams graced the lands, the serenade was sweet
The moment was perfect as the lovers did meet

His actions were flawless, entwined they became
His lips touched her skin, their passions aflame
As their sweet moment, began to elapse
He fell to one knee, as if to colapse

Filled with such horror she followed him down
As he went to his pocket and brought forth a crown
His words spoken so softly, he asked her to be
With a nod of her head, she answered his plea

Their life was so perfect, nothing was wrong
But like all good books, it sung a new song
A tear was to shed, for the man of her life
A funeral took place, before she became wife

It was a bullet, that took him from her
But how it all happened seemed more than a blur
She remembers an alley, she remembers a thump
She remembers a shot, how in front he did jump

The book is now closing, the ink has now dried
Each drop was a tear that poor girl had cried
These pages are written, with the tears that she shed
Stained with the pain, that her soulmate is dead.

Stunning......


Absolutely stunning......

Tells the whole story, but isn't too obvious with details. I love that.

Excellently done.

God bless,
Ellen

I really liked it. It flowed, it rhymed FLAWLESSLY. It seemed to just run right.
But I will say it seems cliche. Not to rain on your great poem, but it's just... yeah. Like the movies.
Anyway, I wanted to say your style RAWKS, but the story is cliche. I look forward to reading more of your work. You're good.

I absolutely have no words to describe how I felt after reading this poem. To call it magnificent would be an understatement. Amazing, really a poem of brilliance.

Luke...I say this with all sincerity; your talent has finally come full circle on this one. Your last half-dozen or so poems have, in my opinion, been leading up to this.

Your style has really blossomed. Your ability as a writer far surpasses mine. This is the single best piece you've ever written, and I choose not to tarnish it with sub-standard commentary. A silent, mouth-open-wide gaze should be sufficient.

Truly,
-Dan

A story teller after my own heart.
This unfolded with grace and eloquence befitting a write I should expect to pay money for.
Thanks for the freebie!
