One of my two+ poems I wrote for my Creative Writing class during the
first semester(and I got a good grade on it too^_^) And, as for the tense
changes that don't look like they belong: See this?(flashes poetic license)
OK, enough blabbering. I need to finish Ch 1 of Fughigi Akugi before I'm
mauled for the events in the prelude.
Enjoy!
Why?
by Mysia
Ri
"Doushite?"
Anger courses through me
My love was taken by my
friend
I take up a dagger
Bent on bringing him
end
"Doushite?"
The heavy rains do not still my rage
My life-long
friend and I fight
But when the river sought to claim him
I forget my
anger and do what's right
"Doushite?"
I hold on to him and draw him
back
Then a surge of pain, his hand is gone
My anger is replaced with pain
so great
I lost my friend because I was wrong
"Doushite?"
The word
echos through my mind and soul
Now I can only reflect with a sigh
My
friend, my love, my life were swept away
And all I can do is
wonder...why?
