Awesomely Sad Poems

Ok, I want some awesome poems that will make me cry.

They can be on almost any subject that you want, but there are a few rules:

1: nO wRitInG LiKe tHiS

2: No erotica

3: Keep profanity to a minimum

4: Minumum drug references

5: Make me cry

This gives you a lot of freedom to write what you want.

Good Luck All!!!

The better end.

The end of the world came after the end of the world.
Everyone upstairs was dead but inside and downstairs.

Help her Carve for Halloween

Rise up and make her life,
Look at her preen,
And help her carve for Halloween.
