My lovers

My lovers

A Poem by purplepenguin9
"

The place where all my lovers seem to end up.

"

Not the first to steal my heart,

Not the first to make me cry.

Not the first to win my love,

Not the first to go and die.

All my sweethearts seem to go

To that place six feet below.

I know you had no choice,

But still I plead you - why?

Death takes all of those we love at some point and we are always left wondering why. Answers are not always easy to come by.
I enjoyed reading this piece. Well penned.

I know this feeling all to well, I like how this write just flows down the page.

I hope this is not true. How tragic it can be. I like how you cut the lines, and how you developed the writing from top to bottom. It's really short but well-written. Th emotion is there.

Keep Writing. ^___^

Aww, that was really depressing. :[ It's a beautiful piece of work, and so sad.
