My Light

The streak continues Donaut haha


Abandoned for ages, yet know by the world.
If I’m so recognizable, why can’t I be help?
My foundation is anchored in place,
Accompanying my right hand, a beacon.

Rain, wind, heat.
Every know element grates upon me as I stay strong,
A castaway lighting the way to freedom.

Masses flood from overseas, seeking my light,
Groveling upon my shores I can do nothing but stare on.
How can I save millions when I can’t save myself?
Turmoil ravages both worlds, but I radiate conditional strength.

Peace flows like air around my tiny sanctuary.
The every busy world rising higher and wider,
Till two partners in share for the top of the world.

My age shows in my joints as morning rises again,
I awaken, looking north I witness the horror
As both comrades in iconship crumble and die,
A silence covers this world, my light faulters.

The funeral’s finale end, the rustic tears brushed away.
Millions in sorrow turn to my candle,
A vision to behold as my humble landmark, has marveled the world over.
My true calling has been answered and I accept.
I am peace.
I am life and liberty.
I am the American Dream.



God Bless.

 

I really like the last verse.

And this one is a lot longer than some of your others so that is good.

I'm just gonna have to rep you, this is so good.

ZOMFG you did a great job again. No grammatical errors as far as I can see either.

=D

REP ROCKS!!! It means i'm doing something write at least lol.

But thank you, my poems really mean something deep inside me and for others to appreciate them as i do makes me smile.

Rep returned

 

That's good to know.

Does it relate directly or just metaphorically?

BTW, my favorite line in this is
How can I save millions when I can't save myself?

It really speaks to me.
GREAT Job. Again. XD
