| Week 62 Promptwrite
a ballad poem. ballad poems tend to have short stanzas, a refrain, a
rhyme scheme, and they almost always tell a story. these storys
historically talk about love, war, and beautiful women dying from
broken hearts, but you can/should be more creative about it. the
refrain should occur at least twice.
The days are dark and empty,
Since I last saw your face,
My soul is cold within me,
I just want to leave this place,
Sometimes the memory of your smile,
Comes crashing down on me,
I wonder if you knew,
That we were meant to be,
I was a part of your life,
You were the missing piece in mine,
And now that your gone,
This shredded life's what's left behind,
My heart can't see your gone,
My head can't comprehend,
You left me all alone,
I'll never understand,
This ragged torn up life,
Without you here with me,
I wanted you to know,
But now you'll never see,
I walk the streets at night,
I think of what we had,
Our love was my light,
I don't know why I never said,
The words that burn in me,
To tell you how I feel,
Won't fall silent still,
Can't let my conscience heal,
My heart won't see your gone,
My head can't comprehend,
You left me all alone,
I'll never understand,
This ragged torn up life,
Without you here with me,
I wanted you to know,
But now you'll never see,
Now you'll never see,
That you were all I had,
All I'd ever want,
I wanted you to know,
But now you'll never see.
