I'll Rescue You!

A Mario poem

It was such a lovely day

Then you took her away

The sky brightly shining

Now anger inside me

I clench my knuckles

Fire leaf in hand

Running, swimming, and jumping

Burning with vengeance as I ran

I only thought of you

As I lunged past another

Your smile, your laugh

Tears fell fast

Castle after castle

They preyed upon my love

I'll rescue you tonight

I'm near the end

I see the heat blaze

Fire roars past me

I can see him through the smoky haze

I've made it this far

I won't let you down

Studying his moves

In the lava he drowns

That's when I saw you

You still surprise my eyes

Such beautiful imagery

Worth all my extra lives

I hold you tightly

My heart races

Joyous aching

Once again in your graces

I look deep into your eyes

Like lovers do

I just wish I could utter

"I love you"
