"Write a poem that begins with the phrase 'I am a love story' "
I am a love story
My opening credits are epic and my heroine, she
Is not the definitive beauty
(She cries too often, and can be
Extraordinarily self-righteous, so for true
The audience doesn’t always root for her)
And what she falls in love with is
The horizon and what
Sings her awake is
My whisper in the morning that today
Might be different
Oh, I breath her in and at the exhale
She comes out bruised, and vehemently swears off my epilogue
But I never believe her because time
And again she delves,
Waltzing between my lines
With new hope that someone’s forever will
Coincide with hers, and
Pursues the dream with such
Vigor that it doesn’t matter
How many white crosses
She passes on the highway because
Every single time, she creates the
Most moving balcony scene you’ve ever beheld
