Iambic Love I understand not everyone likes me, But if you get to know me you shall see, That I am actually a nice guy, There's only one person I want to die. This one person, they shall be known as J, For if I told her name, what would she say? My reasoning for this is rather clear, She broke my heart in hopes to shed a tear. When I first met her, I thought she was mean, Her ulterior motives I'd not seen, I found that she had actually cared, For me, and I thought that my life was spared. We spoke a while and then we fell in love, I held her close to me, she was my dove, I thought all of my woes were washed away, I thought, by my side, she'd forever stay. But eventually her care had worn, Her love for someone else, it had been born, You thought it better if I did not hear, That you were leaving me from you, my dear. I always held you close to me, sweet-heart, You were my simply stunning work of art, You were the only thing that kept me sane, Now you're the only thing that brings me pain. I wish you dead, I'm sorry but it's true, It's the one way I can be free of you, To see you dead would please me to no end, Else our past love will drive me round the bend. I wonder if I'm taking things too far, I think that I should stop raising the bar, To accept that you're gone is all I need, To stop the flow of pain and plant a seed. I hope the seed will grow into a tree, Grow high so it can overlook the sea, So I can sit there watching over you, To make sure that you're safety will ensue. My tree of love will always have a room, To keep you safe from any doom and gloom, I'd keep you safe with every part of me, I only live to see that you're happy. And if I were to find myself new love, I'd never forget about you, my dove, That's something that no-one shall ever be, You'll always be my gorgeous dove to me. You were my first love and I shan't forget, All of the times when you began to fret, You thought that you would lose me that's not true, If you forget me, I won't forget you. If you need my help in an hour of need, Just call me and I shall do any deed, If you needed it I'd swim all the seas, I'l climb all the mountains, fell all the trees. For you, there's no challenge that is too hard, I'd be your eagle, even be your bard, I'd take you anywhere, just name a place, Your tomb, your crypt, or even deep in space. Now that I think, why should I give a care, I don't need you to love me, I'm a bear, I tear down trees, I even rip up lambs, Though I still hold your heart with loving hands. Even though it freezes me to my core, Even the thought of it can make me sore, I wonder if my love will ever stop, I see your heart start to melt, drop by drop. A heart of flesh will grow from yours of ice, I keep it close to me and feel the slice, Of your barbs as you tear away from me, And I stumble and fall into the sea. Guided by voices I'll find my way, From sorrow's shores to happiness' bay, Through the dark streets of every memory, I leave them behind me, now I can see. My life has lots of happiness ahead, My memories of you will soon be dead, And once you're completely gone from my life, I'll remove you for you shan't be my knife. With you gone I will be able to breathe, Instead of thoughts of you making me seethe, I'll take a deep breath, then I'll start anew, I'll look back at my past and bid adieu. I'll board a ship and sail across the seas, And fill my head with happy memories, Of love and life and hapiness for free, Instead of sadness, heart-break and pity. I'll laugh at you as you stand on the shores, Looking for a boat that has sails or oars, If you were my dove, you could fly to me, But you're now in my distant memory. This is one of my longer poems. It is also my first poem where I used 10-syllable Iambic Pentameter. It's also another "Unknown Theme" poem!
