"You"

You.
I want you to put away
That razor blade.
I want you to put the pills back
And get rid of the bottle.
I want you to put that rope
In the trash can.

I know it's hard right now.
Whatever youre feeling,
It's been felt before.
People can get through it.
They just have to be strong enough.

I believe in you.
Even if you don't think you're strong,
I know you are.
You wouldn't be here today
If you weren't.

And if you say that you can't afford to care,
I say to you,
Love doesn't come at a cost.
Love is free.
It duplicates, and it heals.

And if you don't think you have enough love,
That's okay.
I've got plenty enough
For the both of us,
And it would be my greatest pleasure
To share some with you.

Quick note another example of a shorter epic encase your not sure about the length, is one i wrote myself here it is.
(This length will be fine but no shorter)
The Life of death
Nary a soul around as I walked along the narrow track. Off into the wild unknown I strolled until i reached a pass. One way forward, one way back. Perchance i sit a moment and ponder, on which way should I take? You cannot fathom my surprise when out of the woods a spirit flies. Its body covered in black plumules and it donned a skull upon its head. Closer and closer to me it flew, i could feel a numbing cold creeping up my spine. And somehow, dont ask me how, i knew that if it brushed, or touched me I would pass away, into an endless slumber. As it reached out its hand an encouraging smile upon its face, i was tempted to accept my fate. But then a deer leaped in our path and his attention was caught astray. I watched them play from night to day. How long i stood there dare i say? The two seemed to dance and prance about! They romped over grass but never did he touch the ground. I stood and watched as the first brushed his hand against a chrysanthemum. It crumbled and shriveled up. He retracted his hand in fear, but that dear sweet deer nuzzled his shoulder and i could have sworn i saw him smile! The deer inclined its head and regarded me, she bowed and i was free. I ran and took the track back, and to this day I surmise if the two still gambol out in those woods, without a woe in the world. For that day I saw the Life of Death.

Wonderful idea! I will post more later.

The stars high above
Cold breeze shifting autumn leaves
From the trees ablaze

Hi, I'm Emberfall777 (or just Emberfall or Ember), here to enthuse about sonnets! :D


The Greatness Of Sonnets:

Sonnets are great
They just can't be beat
There is nothing to hate
They swipe you off your feet

Sonnets are fun
I could write them all day
While I sit in the sun
And others work and play

Sonnets are cool
They make me feel free
They are better than school
On that I think we all can agree

They can be silly too
You can write about a shoe!

hahaha thats Great Ember! would you like to join the group?

Sure! (I also titled it cause why not XD)
