The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Noticably lighter than my normal style... We had an assignment in English for Valentine's Day. We had to write a love-themed poem. Everyone was going bitter, so I thought I'd try something a little... different.

"Narcissism"

 

Raising my head,

What do I see?

Who's this beautiful creature

Staring at me?

 

With hair like spun gold

And eyes like the sun,

Lips rosey red

And a dimple for fun.

 

A face that stays lovely

Throughout all time...

Oh geez I just realized

I'm thinking in rhyme!

With a small sigh, I blow a kiss to the mirror and exit the room.

I like that. It's short, sweet, and it strays from the normal conception of "I hate myself" that is so often present in poetry (definetly is in mine). Well done.

Elder than dirt, more foolish than a jester, able to trip over the smallest logic in a single step. It's... Oh, you know.
