Side By Side
They're falling.
They're calling to
one another.
After all,
they're all
they have.
Some would say
they were insane.
More like loyal.
He let go.
He knew he
couldn't live
without her.
He couldn't
let her go
alone.
He made a smart choice.
It might have
been difficult for
others,
but him, his
flaw made it simple.
She couldn't be saved
Far past rescue.
He wouldn't have been
able to function.
Properly anyway.
He wouldn't be
any help
on the quest.
He wouldn't even
think about the horrors
she would have
had to go
through
alone.
It seemed an
impossible task.
But this was them.
Side by side
they could face
anything.
They retrieved
the bolt,
the Fleece.
Saved the protector
l-i-g-h-t-n-i-n-g
moon
camp
Olympus.
Each other.
And now
they have to
save the world.
Again.
From itself.
They're tired.
Who wouldn't be?
But they can do
anything with
the other.
It'll be alright.
As long as they're together.
A/N: So that was my first attempt at a freeverse poem.
If you couldn't figure out who it was, it was Annabeth and Percy. After they fall into Tartarus.
I bolded/underlined/italicizedmy favorite points in this. Don't know why, really. It just looked pretty.
So give me feedback.
I like writing these. It really helps me kind of express how I'm feeling on a certain things.
We're doing poetry in English, so well... *shrugs.*
Will turn into series if so desired. Request pairings, events, characters, etc., if you wish for another.
Thank you, and if you want, review. It makes my day.
