My Sword

My Sword, My Sword!





It fills me with glee.




Once the villain is killed,





I shout “YIPEE!”





No monster or villain




Could escape my grasp!





But one villain in particular




Made me gasp.





He had large horns,




And a dark green robe




That spread fear




All throughout the globe





I challenged him




With my sword raised high





I shouted at him




“SAY GOODBYE!”





He snarled in my face,




“No hero has ever beaten me!”




But I was determined





To set Earth free.





We fought to the death





I face his wrath




But his, far too powerful




Sliced my sword in half!





My Sword, My Sword!




The blade has been cut!




But, luckily my dagger




Stabbed him in the gut.





He cried out in pain




And feel to his knees.





I had to finish this,




Before anyone sees.




But my heart wasn’t in it




For the prizes in store.





In exchange for his death and his gore.





I told him to go




Head towards south




Don’t let your words




Escape your mouth.





My Sword, My sword!




Don’t you see?




That in exchange for the blade




The world has been set free!

"I was taught that a successful life was a happy one. When my teacher asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up I told her I wanted to be happy. She said I didn't understand the question. I said she didn't understand life."

I love the story so much! It's adorable. Just make sure that you're focused on what you're actually saying. At times I feel as though you are focusing so much on making a rhyme that you lose track of making sense. Other than that 5 stars!
