A/N: I was looking at this picture:

And I wrote a poem about it!
Swimming Lessons
Intense sobbing fills the hall
Of a celebration scene
A gentle kiss was all he had
To tell her what she means
The fact that simply being there
Is everything to him
The fact that in her scarlet hair
He wishes he could swim
To drown slowly in her eyes
And never let her go
Now that's all he'll ever think
And she'll never get to know
He didn't have the faintest clue
Of the tragedy that fell
Into his life, consumed his heart
And spun its deadly spell
Her final wish was to let him know
That their love would never die
To tell their story and hence to show
Some tears are worth a cry
-Melanie
