RE: Runaway Rhymes Poetry Contest 14 - It's all About Love

in #poetry7 years ago

My entry for Love. This is a true story.

--

There are many definitions
of what a hero could be
And from my sister's description
that hero could be me

You see my sister needed a kidney
back in nineteen ninety-five
And if it wasn't for me donating
she wouldn't be alive

I really don't feel like a hero
it's just something I had to do
But I do get a warm sensation
when she tells me, "I love you"

Sort:  

That is beautiful, thank you for entering.

Thank you. I wrote that one today for another contest, but it fit into this one so well I just had to enter it here too. I've been thinking about my sister recently and that prompted this poem. When I saw the word "Love" show up, it just had to be right.

You never know, it could end being a double winner :)

That's kind of you to say. If I just win at all, especially 1st, that will be good enough. I don't want to be greedy and deprive others of upping their Steem.
