About this Poem: Seeing his friends' sacrificial side, Archie has slowly matured to giving it his all. So what if he hadn't ever thought about risking his life for another - now he does, after realising how far his friends would go to protect one another - including him.
I Wonder
I've seen how Jay
Risked his life for Odie
And how they would sacrifice it all
For their friends.
And behind all this thought,
I wonder if they ever knew that
A month ago,
I wouldn't.
Author's Note: This is a poem of much simplicity and straightforward thought. I put spaces between each line for a new kind of feel - I guess a sort of detachment. Archie wouldn't have sacrificed himself a month ago, but seeing how precious these friends are, he's learnt to give and take. And I guess that is a sweet thing in its own right, since he probably used to think everyone was his enemy. The next couple of poems will be Atlanta-centric, I bet some of you A/A fanatics would be glad to hear.
