I Left It On the Hill

A poem I had to write for an extracurricular group. The prompt? I left it on the hill. (I didn't think it was all that great, but I won the contest we were having!)

I left it on the hill-

The one that owned our childhood-

To stay there forever.

The hill where we played;

While pines guarded us,

And the sun danced for us.

The hill where two memory-children

Still wander.

 

I left it on the hill-

Where I offered my life to you-

The diamond ring nestled in the grass.

On the hill where we sat;

While the pines witnessed our joy,

And the sun kissed your face.

The hill where our happiness began

And continues.

 

 

 I left it on the hill-

Where you stood in white-

All the fears I ever had, gone.

On the hill were we joined;

While the pines wept tearful needles,

And the sun protected us.

The hill where our past-selves merged

Together, forever

 

I left you on the hill-

And the tears left my eyes-

You, in white again, until I join you.

Under the hill of dark death dirt;

While the pine stumps guard us,

And the sun bleeds thickly into the sky.

 The hill were we will stay

Entwined into eternity.
