I wouldn't be defeated. . .
I no longer needed answers
to questions I didn't pose-
You waited patiently, as
I learned to forgive and move
away from the past. . .
You admired, adored, respected me.
I'd reign Queen eternal in your
broken-down world.
Life was made new when
you closed your eyes;
because
I came to life again,
when you called.

13 lines.
Prompt was "When You Close Your Eyes". . .
the contest rules were 8 lines---no more!
After I shamelessly cut it to pieces, still
I went over by one line.
This is the original, in it's entirety.
Enjoy
