Happy Anniversary to me!!! A few days ago, March 21, 2010, is the anniversary of my membership in fanfiction. I am no longer a newbie!!! J

So I wrote some poetry that was inspired by Pearl84's Checkmate, aka The best story every written by a fanfic author.

I wasn't a bad person,

So why did my life seem to worsen?

I saved my town,

Kept it from falling… Down.

I fought so hard,

And played every card.

Every ghost,

Even the ones I hated most.

Except for one.

And he won.

There was no bloody battle,

Only a test that made my brain rattle.

The Career Aptitude Test.

I wanted to do my best.

But for me, that wasn't good enough,

Even if I studied all my stuff.

So I stole the answer key,

Nobody seemed to agree.

So Sam, Tuck, and Lancer called Mom and Dad,

It ended… It was just… Bad.

The screams…

Will forever haunt my dreams.

And they were all gone,

Guts were splattered across the Nasty Burger lawn.

My life died that day,

So you, Vlad, took me away.

But I was far gone.

There was no light at my dawn.

You tried…

You held me when I cried.

However, you could only fill half the void.

I was destroyed.

Thank you Vlad, for trying,

But I have been dying…

And the warning bell is going to chime,

That it is my time.

Goodbye Vlad,

Thank you. You made a pretty good dad.

Good? Bad? Flow? Characters?

Please review!!
