Saturday Poetry Prompt Word: Tragic

Through a thousand Forevers, Beats on a drum, A rhythmic Melody A quiet hum. Throughout a million I love you’s And a hundred goodby’s Was the promise Of a thousand Cries When we saw your Drape of silver They were sure it was magic The sight The tears The I love you’s It was tragic.

Prompt:
