The Jack and Sally Romance



Her bruises are more frequent
I wonder what has happened
Who is hurting this angel
Making her tear drops turn to blood
She should know
She can always come to me
I will make her pain disappear
But only if she's willing
To take my hand
And walk away from this all
She says her father hurts her
She thinks that she is ugly
Yet i see nothing wrong
her smile is still shining
Her eyes are always stunning
Regardless of her past
Or how her father treats her
She can always come to me
To dry her eyes
And use me as her comfort
We meet each other every night
Atop the crooked hill
Beneath the Willow tree
We count all of her bruises and her scars
I pray for them to heal
Her eyes still shine
In the coldness of the night
This Jack and Sally romance
It can make my mind go crazy
I feel her sorrow
And suffer just as she does
I must be going crazy
She cant exist
She's far too perfect for me
Laying on my chest i see those eyes shine again
We're both so cold
But refuse to leave our comfort
It's the most we've ever felt
In a long long time

I'm a poet that writes solely on what i feel at the time i write.If i feel lonely,i write a poem about lonliness and add a story behind that,if im angry then my gorey little mind will just take over and write what it feels,hope whoever reads enjoys.Many of my poems come from a little bit of inspiration,Edgar Allan Poe gives me new ideas with every poem i read and i try to use a little bit of his style while keeping it all my own. more…
