David

Hard marble
soft skin
soft lips
that grin
contrapasto
fall, Goliath
fall
down
like I fell
I fell at David's mercy
like you, Giant Goliath
but my David threw no stone
only pebbles at my bedroom window
when I fell
I fell in love
I fell the hardest of us two
friend giant
In death you have peace
but in love I have everything
you have slain me, my David

    Nice poem

    I love this poem. Great job in connecting the story of David and Goliath to a happy love story. I would have never thought it was possible to do that before reading your poem. Good job.
