Dear Polly - Reprise

Rhyme scheme and acrostic inspired by my other poem, Dear Polly.

I love you, you know

I hated, it grated, to see this show

I know you know I let this grow

I’m sorry I stepped to leave you alone

I wish, I wish, to see you find home

Could you, could you stay beside me in love?

 

I am me and you are you

I can see the proven view

Love is war, and all is fair

Love is more than solitaire

You are you and I am me

You would rue this rivalry

As would I, yet here we are

As the sky shows mirrored star

We a pair of starstruck friends

We impair the start of ends

Try to bond before we break

Try to ponder, war at stake

To displace the doubts with trust

To embrace without disgust

Find a way to open speech

Find a ray of hope in reach

Home is near, we’re holding on

Home is here, a golden dawn
