Was It Right?

This poem is in a form called Bop, a relatively new form that I've done some experimentation with. Unfortunately, the experiments have recently been exploding in my face, but I hope you enjoy them anyway!

All I feel is pain.

No hope, love, fright.

Just agonizing fire burning

Over my body

As those kids drive away.

My eyes are closing.

I saved his life.

But what now?

Sara's here,

Her smell brings me home,

Makes me remember the good times.

But then I try to move

And pain overrides my mind.

Sleep is welcoming me

Into her arms

Like a mother soothing a child.]

I saved his life.

But what now?

Stanley is grateful

As he is alive.

DJ is dead

And that's on me.

The physical pain is leaving me

But the mental agony has only begun.

I saved his life.

But what now?
