Poem 7 - Model Poem

Original Poem


Model Poem

The Fall

Take my hand and hold it tight!
And in parting into night,
Thus together in flight-
You are not wrong to be afraid
That this action, a crusade;
Yet if God is forgiving
In spite¸ he will give us wing
In his mercy, and his grace
Is our prayer that he shall brace?
All he’s given, but to stall
‘Tis our calling, ‘tis our fall

I stand before the dread
Of the despair up ahead
And I hold within my heart
Grains of a fresh start-
How few! Yet how they heal
Through the wounds, emotions yield
While I pray- while I feel
O God! This is where it leads
Them sins, that pain, this greed
O God! I now know how
One move then, causes pain now?
Is all this thinking to stall
But now I’m ready, time to fall

Title: The Fall
Type: Model poem
Inspiration: The first line came to me very easily, and so after that I found that I could go far with the subject. This poem came to me very easily and without much thinking, the words just flowed out.

Poem 8 - Cinquain






He’s there
The world is stopped
Just to admire him
Wait, reality has snapped back
He’s gone

He’s not
Like other guys
Sweeter, nicer, better
Unattainable, now that’s what
He is


He smiles
Heart skips a beat
Praying for just a chance
All the rumors, speculations
I cry
Heartbreak
By: Amy Bishop <3
 Title: Heartbreak
Type: Cinquain
Inspiration: A relationship with a certain guy that put me through a lot of emotional battles.


*Out of all the poems I have this one is my favourite. It really managed to capture the emotions and pain that I was feeling at the time. Life is emotional, and sometimes it's good to release those emotions and share what you're feeling. I think this poem sums up these emotions very well andis a good expression of real heartbreak.
