A ghost from the past by ~hiryuu:iconhiryuu:



A Ghost From the Past

The silence of the night reflects a cold whisper
A subconscious voice digging into my heart
The words come again, they come much crisper
They come much louder and I rise with a start
A ghost from the past lives in my soul
A ghost from the past haunts my dreams
Lying down struggling to regain self-control
I close out the room and the shadows of moonbeams
Gone forever, never to return
The cold bitter solitude tears thought astray
With so much to live for, so much to learn
Why did he throw his life away?
He shot himself two years before
On the day I told I didn't love him anymore

i wrote this sonnet for english almost a month ago...basically our only requirement was that it had to do with love. i dunno, i was in somewhat of a dark, depressive mood at the time

I'd love to see the look on good ol' Yoda's face...
This is really really cool! Depressing, yes, but cool!

Show me a piano falling down a mineshaft and I'll show you A-flat minor.

I wonder what Yoda's reaction to your poem was................

"*gasp* He... he-he-he... SHOT himself??!" :yoda:

Wow. I was NOT expecting those lines at the end! :O_o: It's beautiful, though. I really, really like the love poems that aren't all happy and sappy. This is really good.
