Roses and Mums:

A Sonic verse poem

By:Ersiffa Narman

I am not loved

I am lonely

It has always been this way

I have been abused

Sometimes it is directly

Other times it isn't intentional, but it happens every day

Ever since my fifth birthday in March

I lost my nïevete`

All because of one man's desires

My spirit is parched

But I looked positive and attentively

I tried to hide my tears

I failed

I was sent to an orphanage

It was torture there, too

This place was a mountain I can't hope to scale

Then came Dr. Robotnik's first espionage

He came and killed, two by two

Then I saw the hero on TV

He was handsome and his eyes were gorgeous

His hair was my favorite color, blue

I thought my eyes were deceiving me

"Sonic, help us!"

He ran over leaving behind a turquoise hue

He pulled me and a few others out of the rubble

He asked if we were okay

And I replied, "Yes."

He looked into my eyes, his stare made me stumble

He asked me to go with him, I said okay

I thought he'd be my savior, the one to get me out of this mess

He didn't, he only made it worse

I thought it was love at first sight

He just saw me as a fan girl

Maybe I was, any love he had for me completely dispersed

Soon, we began to fight

He went out with this other girl

But with me, he was harsh

And one day he told me off

He said, "Leave me alone, I don't want to see you again, girl."

He was very tough

So I said, "You won't."

So here I am, clutching this knife

I'll keep my promise

Because after tonight, he'll never see me again

I'll never be his wife

I'll never have his boy, Thomas

I've said good-bye to my friends

But I haven't said good-bye to Sonic

So I'll say it now

"Farewell, my summer love"

"You wanted me gone, so I obliged, how ironic"

"This is all I have to say, for I don't know how,"

Then I took off my glove

I pick up the knife once more

I look at my reflection on its surface

One look at my lifeless eyes

They say it's time to go forward

Yes, I can't stand my pained face

My life was full of lies

But no longer

So I take this blade

And stab my wrists

Seeing my blood contrast with pink, longer

I take one last look at his eyes of jade

I put my hand on his fists

"I love you, even though the feeling isn't mutual."

I begin to feel light-headed

I take the opportunity to let go

Let it all go to hell

I'm sure he's glad to be ridded

He won't know

He won't know until morning

Then when it comes

I'll be gone

I'll show him this warning

See the blood covered roses and mums

Let red mix with pink and then he'll be all alone

…...

The news reporter lies!

Amy Rose can't be dead!

I never got to say goodbye!

I'll never see her sea green eyes!

Why didn't I get it through my head?

I lost a friend last night…

I can't see her pink fur stained red

I am stupid

I should've listened to Cupid

Why didn't I see?

I guess I learned my lesson much too soon

For she was there, just last night

She was happy and vibrant

But on the rise of the moon

She stabbed herself with a knife

Her green eyes were dull and different
