I Do

I'll hold your hand and sing these songs
That gently brush away
all that's gone wrong

I'll kiss your lips and with it find
Indeed my scars
they've healed with time

I'll rise up from my mourning
I'll gently kiss sun
And gracefully embrace
This woman I've become

Author notes

my old scarey scars are healing, and a large part is because of tom. Next week i will officially be a mrs.

this is my *happiness* in simple words. To be able to get up, know that i've left my bad situations in the past, and become a happier person and a stronger person from it. To not be afraid to embrace this better person i've become.

    okay! I appriciate your words because they combine to form a good expressiona and finally a pictuize a great colourful imagination in front of my eyes. But, I will complain about the flow of the lines. I think that the flow in the first stanza was really odd and so does in second. Though, third had a good flow, as smooth as milk...

    I think that I can suggest you something:
    Your first stanza:
    "I'll hold your hand and sing these songs
    That gently brush away
    all that's gone wrong"

    Maybe it looks better as:
    "I hold your hand,
    singing these songs.
    That gently brush away,
    everything going wrong!"

    In the second stanza:
    "I'll kiss your lips and with it find
    Indeed my scars
    they've healed with time"

    I think that you can repharse this as:
    "Kissing your lips,
    I find,
    My scars indeed have,
    healed up with time"

    Well, the third stanza was quite good

    they are jsut my suggestions. keep them. think about them. or delete them. it is up to you

    Wonderful! Beneath the depth of your lines, I see a strong woman of substance. This piece is simple yet beautifully written. You've conveyed each expression very well in these few lines. I like this poem because it is very honest and undoubtedly from the bottom of your heart. However, one line sounds awkward:
    "I'll gently kiss sun"
    I think that a "the" before the sun would make it grammatically correct.

    Once again, great write. Keep writing.

    Aww, Sin, that was so awesome. I was confused about this line, though:

    I'll rise up from in from my mourning

    Was it supposed to be "I'll rise up from my mourning" ??

    Anyway, regardless, this was a very touching write. Only a few more days!
