Day 7: The Giving Game

The Giving Game

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind

Let the world be blind and take both of mine

For you I've more to give

An arm and a leg are a high price to pay

But money is no object when brightening your day

This lifestyle you continue to live

Obviously I have no reason to fret

After my liver has been sold on the Internet

It's getting harder to go on

I've bartered my soul And my heart of gold

I've given so much

Do you think this is wrong?

You take from me without a second thought

Without a single feel of remorse

I hope you enjoyed what I've given to you because I'm taking it back

I want a divorce

_______________

It's been a week already? Wow! Time just flew~ I was feeling rather rhymy today and wrote this. Obviously I've never been divorced, but I do know what it feels like to be the Giver.

interesting. rhyme is nice; i like the pattern/scheme
the giver- very very bery interesting topic. ive actually been trying to write a fic (kind of) related to that theme- but wow this was cool. i totally didn't expect the edn when i was first reading- i thought the porm was one about being able to give up everything for the one you love, but then it turns out the poem stuck true to a more modern and unfortunately common situation.
yaaaaaay!~ congrats on one whole week! ^.^ :D how many more days do you plan on continuing, again?
