So I'm terrible with writing, especially poetry. But, I thought why the heck not eh?
Roses are red,
Violets are blue..
Shit, no they're purple.
Ah well.
Kidding. well here goes:
To express in words that I can no longer feel,
The tenderness of your hugs;
The warmth in your smile;
The shine in your eyes-
Those beautiful green-grey eyes
I have known my whole life.
You did the best you could,
I wanted to tell you every time;
I didn't wish to be a burden;
I did not mean to cry,
You always knew my heart was always on my sleeve.
Just like you rocking me to sleep as a child,
I would comfort you when you needed it.
We would talk about anything-
All the things we wished for;
All the things we missed;
All the things to come-
And to all that we did not get to see.
Mostly, I will miss those waltzes.
During the day, you taught me-
How to dance,
How to enjoy the music of your youth,
How to step and follow and lead;
How to enjoy life, even for a slight moment.
I won't forget you, I promise.

Beautiful poem, Minou.
I can't help but try give it a title. How about "The Unforgetable Dance of Your Life"?
(Either that or "Shit No, They're Purple". j/k - the next competition should be a challenge to write a poem that ends with that line)
Danke, maybe I will. I just really didn't know what to put.
"Shit No, They're Purple" x2
