The end of a Golden String

The end of a Golden String

A Poem by Catherine Li
"

This is a poem I wrote for my school poetry contest. Unfortunately, I did not win. It's about love that is not reciprocated.

"

I give you the end of a golden string.

(hoping for no more than what it will bring)

The lies tricks and deceit will no longer separate us but rather

trust and trust will adhere us together

You shall be a merry man,

and a merry man I will be once more.

 

I give it to you to plead for your bittersweet love

and the affection I want more than a white dove

(for love is more deep-rooted than freedom in all men)

So it shall be that your words will always be endearing,

and my adoration for you will always be never ending.

Our bond shall be as tight as the same chains

who imprisons the guilty,

and that is so from my desperate soul

to the warm crevices of my heart.

 

All that will be when there is a golden string

The transparent tie,

invisible to the naked eye.

 

So I gave you the end of a golden string.

That is, my golden string

(hoping for more than what it did bring)

But it did not.
