Shoelace

That first text was blessed by the all father Odin himself Two of his sons bound Together by a green shoelace in the park of my heart Thor's lightning bolts sparked Between the Sheets of my bed I was in utter bliss feasting in Valhalla with the Valkyries dancing around us But my 15 minutes of fame was up he only leaving behind his green shoelace Like mistletoe defeated Boulder I was strung up by your green shoelace But a few weeks has passed I found yourself in my bed again and Thor's Sparks flew once more So I fell in love but I fell so hard I found myself in Hel's hall Ragnarok was upon me Fenrir was fighting Odin Jormugndr was eating Thor I had to stop it I had to be reborn out of Yggdrasil And so I was murdered by your green shoelace

A ballade this is not, that has a strict set of rules, call it Free Verse, that fits better. I enjoyed your poem, has a lot of good Norse mythology in it. Welcome to PoetrySoup :)
