I Died For Love Poem by Angee Reynolds

I Died For Love

Rating: 2.8


in a park i do dwell
i met a guy i love so well
there he took me heart from me
now he wants to set it free
there he sat another girl upon his knee
and told her things he never told me
i went home to cry upon my bed
and not a word was said
my dad came home late that night
and searched for me from left to right
he opened my door and smashed it down
and found me hanging from a rope
on the floor he found a note
dig a grave dig it deep
marble stone from head to feet
and on the grave build a door
that says i died for love

Very dramatic and sad. I could picture the whole frightening scene. Well done

You didn't write this. This poem was written by me a little differently in my teenage years. You did it no justice. My younger sister entered it to be published but used her name instead, I was plagiarized. Changing a few words does not make it yours. People get their belongings stolen from their home and call the police, but it's even worse when someone steals your words. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Edit and credit to Toni L. because I worked too hard on this to have it ripped away.

No I'm sorry Toni. U didn't write this poem. U might of had a twist on this famous poem when u were in love in your teens and had your heart broke. But I guarentee u didn't write this. Because my X girl in her teens wrote this same poem with her own twist🤣

I'm sure this is adapted from an old English folk song " the Butcher boy"

This is dramatic but not too burdened with it. As a rhymer, I can't resist the temptation to suggest two additional words be added at the end. 'Once more.' GW62
