The Man Who Loved

The last poem I did for my poetry project in English. It's supposed to be a sonnet, except I couldn't get the iambic pentameter. Oh well. xD Enjoy~

---------------------------------

His love for us goes beyond human hearts,
Through the rejection and accusations,
And the ones that stab him with verbal darts.
Still now, his affection only deepens.

He has a more profound understanding
Of what we truly desire in this life.
His eyes see all the hearts that are aching,
And the many who are buried in strife.

His hand reaches out to all those who seek
A hope that will not fade in utter dark,
And labels each one, small or big, unique.
The lives he’s changed will always leave a mark.

He died for us, not very long ago.
His love paid the price for all that we owe.
