Note: Whee. I wrote this over a span of.. I have no idea how many days.. But I finished it officially on the third of February. It's supposed to be for a book to be published ICly on FK (don't ask if you don't know, I'm too lazy to explain. :D), but I'm not sure I want to publish it anymore.. Its too un-IC. *lol* Rachelle, my sayang, asked me to give it to my dear for Valentine's day, but I told Rachelle that its about my love dying.
Anyways, this poem's called "Seasons' Love". I know it sounds a little weird and the verses don't flow, but I tried! Try and see the literature stuff in it! Have fun!
The healthy green leaves of spring
Sway gently with the breeze
So light, so graceful, they could be:
So much more than one can see.
My love rested weak upon her bed
Her voice a soft whisper
of words that displayed her spirit so fresh
Though her face was losing her colour.
In summer the trees look the loveliest,
and the weather turns vibrant and warm.
Such beautiful feelings are instantly lost
When the season's come and gone.
Her laughter returned to the air
and with hers, followed mine.
My love was strengthening slowly
And regaining her health with time.
Come autumn, the green is set ablaze
With leaves of flaming orange and gold.
They fall so elegantly upon any face
That will, in response, start to glow.
Her striking radiance shone so bright
and walking was no more a chore.
Such improvement seemed miraculous
and we could have only hoped for more.
Icy winds blow, the bald trees shiver-
So do the sleeping ones of Nature
which seemingly cease to exist
In the harsh, glacial winter.
My love rested still upon her bed,
Her musical voice was no more.
It was painful to believe that she was dead-
Painful to the core.
Did you hear my heart when it tore?
I cried at 1:08 AM

Did you hear me this time?
