Dreams come and go
but thoughts say with you forever
I thought about dying a while back and it didn't scare me
I thought about you dying and that scared me more than anything
Is it that I would die for you
I would die for few
It turns out you died for me instead of me dying for you
The faces of war die everyday
I dreamed It wouldn't be you
But who knew
Just yesterday I saw you for the last time as they lowered you into the ground
With a single red rose following you all the way down
I said bye for the last time last night as the dream faded away
It has been 2 years since that day
Dreams come and go
but you will still be in my thoughts
because they stay with you forever
and you forever will be the person I was willing to die for.

This is very touching and overall a good write.
Just one thing, I think you meant "stay" on the second line.
Thanks for entering. -
what a sweet poem

sorry you didn't get judged. You probably should have edited it just a lil bit.

gurl...
Who is this about? Good poem.
Hope you win the contest.
I couldn't come last Fri. I had to go to G-ville, and then to the high skewl for band at 5, and I was almost late cause we got stuck in traffic. I'm trying for this friday. Let me know when the group does other stuff. Ps. I called you back, Tag your it.

This is very beautiful and you have penned your thoughts poignantly. This really sounded like it was written form the heart.
Sadly I cannot consider you at judging as you have gone slightly over the word limit.
In your second line should'say' be 'stay'?
Thank you for writing such a beautiful piece.
