Here's a challenge to anyone that thinks they can do better than my poem. All you have to do is write one that is as long as this one and make every line rhym. Easy huh? Well good luck...
"Saved My Soul" By Tsunami
You found me in the dark at night,
your face a shade of skin so light
I'd have been asleep forever,
someone held your heart to sever
You wrapped your arms around my form,
your skin the feel of it so warm
You took pity on my soul,
your face with an expression never dull
You took me in knowing I wasn't the same,
your eyes so soft as you asked my name
I glanced at you with great hate,
you stared at me like a mate
You defended me when no one would,
tell me now if you really should
I watched you as you cared for me,
such kindness in your eyes I see
I betrayed the trust you showed,
the seeds of death I had sowed
Still you thought with your heart and not your head,
I angered the people that you led
I tried to leave but you said no,
you grabbed my arm not letting go
Driven by emotions I didn't feel,
your lips on mine was quite real
The moment I never knew,
my hatred for you somehow grew
Your hands and touch so soft and sweet,
I thought it was me you'd never beat
Your hold too strong my body too weak,
I allowed myself into your embrace to seek
You held me tight as we lay looking at the stars at night,
my anger and pain replaced by delight
You might have taught me how to love,
or maybe it was a gift from above
As time passed I changed so much,
happier with every feel of your touch
To me you meant a whole lot more,
the pain sometimes made my heart soar
The day it happened was so cruel,
to see you lose your life in a duel
I hate to say this but my love,
was not a gift from above
My soul a shade of black and red,
the wound I had had not bled
I would have gladly died,
with you by my side
But the gods came to claim your soul before I,
could take my life and lie
Inside my heart sits here bleeding,
I can't help but mourn for you every evening
Nineteen years have passed since yesterday,
my body has not aged a day
I stare up at the sky so blue,
my mind thinking only about you
The wound I carry inside still has not healed,
the love I have for you remains sealed
Always there will be an ache of pain,
I sit and wait for the bloody rain
Yet your death that is should never be,
now I'm blind and cannot see...
