I wrote this one a few days ago, it's my first ever rhyming poem (I know the rhythm is a little bit off, but w/e I had fun writing it).
I don't know if I'm going to keep it like this because I wrote the last several lines after I had done most of the poem and I don't really like how I ended it, but I'll see I might just leave it the way it is.
-------------------------------------------------------
I was lost at sea,
dark swells throwing me back and forth.
I couldn't get free,
my compass would never read north.
One day that ceased to be,
found a new way to stay on course.
Your brilliant light guided me,
showing the way with immeasurable force.
Previously unable to see,
your presence is unrivaled by the moon.
Now I'm forever to plee,
that this light does not leave soon.
Shore is in sight finally,
your shine cut through the darkness.
I no longer have to worry,
though there is something I must confess.
You have helped lead me endlessly,
no condition was to weary.
Many a night spent with thee,
life without you would be dreary.
On the shore I can now see,
you stand there waving to me.
Though from my life there was taken a fee,
I'm never again to be.
Lost at sea.
