The grass grows green and the willows weep
rivers wind and the widows sweep
I look to the sky, the friendly sun
it's sad here, though, without anyone
though people surround me and cheerfully talk
my soul is as alone as a misplaced sock
I once had a love but he's gone now
even though, I will still keep our vow
a vow to always be happy and never to mourn
but it's very hard to keep, for now I look upon it with scorn!
I try to stay true to my promise, I promise
but it's hard to not be overcome by the darkness
it creeps, through the cracks in my being, and shrouds me in darkness
I wish I were stronger but it is just too monstrous
I'm sorry, my love, I feel it's too grievous
I've spent so many nights alone, sleepless
cold in the dark without you next to me
if only your light were here to set me free
you were the only light I ever had
but now, why must you make me so sad?
I yearn for your hand to take hold of mine
but alas you're gone, and we will see where I go only in time
last night when I was laying in bed
I felt you come over and kiss my head
you whispered to me "it's time for me to leave"
so now I release you, I set your spirit free
I love you, my dear, it hurts me to say
goodbye on the anniversary of our wedding day.
Note: I made this poem with my friend. We switched after every line. Can you tell which one I was?
