POEM STARTER

Inspired by BlueInk

"You loved me so fiercely that I burned; now, you'll only be left with ashes."

Write a poem that contains this line. You may modify it as you see fit, but the sentiment should remain similar to the original quote.

Sacrifice

The first glance was a spark, so hot it left a mark


The first word started a flame, getting hot enough to maime


Every touch burned with a fire, and so I became a liar


I told you nothing of the pain, I never thought you were to blame


I knew you needed this, needed someone you might miss


So I ignored the pain, all I thought of was what you would gain


You loved me do fiercely I burned; now you’ll be left with the ashes that turned


I’m sorry my love, but I was as fragile as a dove


So this is goodbye, I wish I could hold you as you cry.
