Russell Sivey Poet Free verse

Sacrifice

Sacrifice
Giving one
For the other
Hoping life
Will be less
Bumpy as
Now it’s bad
That’s the way
It is at times
Brokenhearted
And inferior
Wanting life
To be easier
Than it is
At the moment
Hold me now
Give me comfort
Maybe I’ll
Make it through
The dark night
Maybe I’ll
Sacrifice
Everything needed
To continue

Russell Sivey

He's the only one who knows all there is to know about me and loves me anyhow. Of course, if you're just waxing poetic it's great stuff. God Bless, :) JB
