I wrote this in the car yesterday on the way to the beach and I really like how it turned out. I'm normally not a poetic type of person, so I really am looking for comments here on how this turned out. Thanks everyone.
P.S. This poem takes place right after Falling for the Falls part 1.
(I own nothing).
A Chance
(A poem from Allison Munroe's point of view)
I was given a chance.
A chance to be someone, to make my mark on the world
I was destined for greatness,
Brought to the town where dreams became reality
When I first got here, I was ready for anything
I had gotten lucky.
Lucky enough to be introduced to amazing people
I loved these four new friends,
And took comfort in each and every one of them
When I arrived on the show, I knew I was home
I had my limits set.
These limits weren't harsh; I was told they were for my own good
I listened to them intently,
Thinking how easy it would be not to break the rules
When I had boundaries set, I did my best with them
I met my match.
He was my opposite, a match definitely not made in heaven
I reprimanded myself repeatedly,
Scolding myself whenever he made me smile
When I found him, I tried to resist
I fell hard for him.
All he was was trouble, but that's what I loved most about him
I found myself charmed,
Mainly by his sweet side and amazingly good-looks
When we were together, I felt something
I had a problem.
A problem that got blown out of proportion
I was told I had betrayed them,
That they controlled how I felt, how I should act around him
When I had fallen, they refused to help me up
I was given a chance, and I just might have blown it.
So what did you think? I kind of like how this turned out, but I'll never know what you liked/disliked unless you review. :)
