Many songs about love have been sung
But none of them describes my feelings towards you so strong
It's why your rejection so deeply stung
I've dreamt about us two for so long
But you've dashed my dreams and left me doubting if I can be strong
You lent my heart and now you say you can't find it anymore
Now I acutely feel these overwhelming pangs
From the spot where my heart was ripped out
When I look at you again, I almost die from angst
Your voice plays again in my head making me feel like I've just been bitten with fangs
Fangs sucking up my lifeblood and condemning me to an anguished end
My love ricocheted off your walls and right back to me like a boomerang

Winner's Circle: Prompted #3
INTRODUCTION Prompted: #3 is over and done with. There were a total of 7 entries for this challenge, just like with Prompted #2. That was a bit surprising, considering this was a poetry challenge. The first poetry challenge garnered much more attention. Of course, one way to look at the drop in participation is that Vocal writers are not fans of the rondel.
