Anniversary Poem by Mpheng Magome

Anniversary

Rating: 4.8


Ten years dead
But the rain still hurts.

Ten years dead
But warm tears still stream down my face.

Ten years dead
But my wounds still bleed.

Ten years dead
But I can still hear my past clearly.

Ten years dead
But I still long for love.

Ten years dead
And still nobody misses me

Excellent work, Trixie - lovely twist at the end, too.

This is real good. Very creative. I love this thing because of the ending. We have a writer here with a lively mind. GW62
