The Story of Thine
as told through the ages of time
Tell me your stories, your magic is mine.
In the land of consequences and time
Where reality breeds stories that grew as vines
*****
All that you see might very well look fine
Yet behind it disguises the masks of crimes
Looks can be deceiving as lies combine
*****
As you explore and see the details redefined
Of the adventures of characters long lost in rhymes
Told and changed over some period decline
*****
Tales of the old with lost meaning resign
Brought to new life with each generation’s chime
In new light bring meanings redesigned
*****
Only investigation can reveal the truth align
To see where the stories might just climb
To last for longer than the writers inclined
Alas to your stories might just last through time enshrined
About the Creator
Sarah Danaher
I enjoy writing for fun. I like to write for several genres including fantasy, poetry, and dystopian, but I am open to trying other genres too. It has been a source of stress relief from my busy life.

A Sorry Letter
Dear Me, I wanted to sit for a bit and write this letter to you. To tell you how sorry I am for what I've put you through. To let you know it was not my intention to purposely put you through this pain over and over again. I just want you to hear me out, and if at the end of this letter you choose not to forgive me that is fine with me I will understand.

This is lovely. Well done.
Love a good story! Good poem, Sarah
Lovely poem, and the picture is great. It does not follow the true villanelle format (check my guide), but as it is Christmas day everyone who entered gets a tip. And I really enjoyed this poem.
