Hey y'all! This is a brand new one- an Ode to Sheba. I was inspired a couple of nights ago to write this, and I'm finally able to post. (Plus, I had to fight a mob of fleas that keep attacking my socks, and are preventing me from placing my feet on the floor. Y'all should be happy that I'm fighting so hard for you. ;) LOL) Hm... maybe I'll do more odes to the rest of the gang if I get some inspiration. :) Well, thanks for all your support!! Please R&R!!
Oh, and has anyone figured out that coded poem yet? Just curious, cause I want to post the winner. Good luck to those who are still working on it:)
Disclaimer: I do not own Golden Sun. I own all these poems, however.
Presenting... Captive: An Ode to Sheba!
Captive: An Ode to Sheba
I was the captive of my loneliness
I didn't know where I belonged
I didn't want to be a captive
I was the captive of my town
The "Child of the Gods"
I didn't want to be a captive
I was a captive in Babi's Palace
While he made slaves out of my people
I didn't want to be a captive
I was a captive of a foreign group
They needed me within the lighthouse
I didn't want to be a captive
I was a captive of Poseidon
When I fell into the sea
I didn't want to be a captive
I was a captive of an island
There was nowhere I could go
I didn't want to be a captive
Back then-
I always seemed to be a captive
No matter where I looked or went,
I didn't want to be a captive
Now-
I'm the captive of your arms
I feel so safe in them
I want to be your captive
I'm the captive of your smile
There's always warmth in it
Could I be your captive?
I'm the captive of your love
I want to stay with you
Please let me your "captive".
Well, what do you all think? Please let me know! This is a style that I haven't used before, so I'm eager to know how it turned out. Thank you so much:)
