My King

You ruined me my King.

I trusted you and you tore me down.

You made me fear the world I once loved.

You ruined me my King.

You made me build a wall between myself and everyone that I loved.

You can still see it in my eyes.

The wall I built after you broke me.

After you destroyed me.

You ruined me my King.

I didn’t know what to do as I keeled down

The remains of my heart scattered around me.

Every Time I tried to pick them up…

The wind simply blew them away.

You ruined me my King.

Least that’s what I thought.

Yet here I stand.

I am battered.

I am bruised.

And I am half dead.

But here I stand.

I smile,

I’m still standing.

I’ve been waiting for you my beloved King.

You take my hand

Whispering that you’re sorry.

That this time will be different.

“I will protect you this time.”

You swear to me.

But you ruined me my King.

How do I know you won’t ruin me again?

But yet here I stand next to you.

The fires of our past burn behind us.

The smoke shielding what is ahead of us.

I’m ready my King.

You create a powerful tale in the poetry.
"The fires of our past burn behind us.

I liked the above lines. The past and future do combine. The past reminders make us more wise with the possibilities of the future. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

there's only one thing to say: I loved it!

As for grammar i personally don't see y people would judge grammar when it comes to poetry. sometimes it's all just part of the poem.

Bottom line: I loved it! thanx 4 sharing :)
