Notes About The Poem

Example for my contest.

One must choose between two lovers. In this poem two woman have fallen madly in love with the same man. He can only choose one to live with for the rest of his life. He loves them both but one heart unfortunately will be broken.

One Dies

for love, three hearts yearn 
into the sunset...two ride 
one heart dies, alone 

A love triangle tween three yearning hearts 
Two have moved on, sadly, one departs
