Analysis of The Lunacy Swear



I swear to you
I'll protect her life
But you never know when i'll be blindsided
The least i can do is shrug and say i tried
But belive me that will never happen
I will remind her of the ones who love her
And make her forget the ones who hate her
Protect her from the roaming darkness
Push away all the reaching hands
She will no longer suffer
When im around
Protecting her is like a knife right at my throat
At any moment it could slip
And the blood would be on me
So to all her enemies
I can say with confidence
If you push her anymore
I will gut you like a fish

Sabre Crum

I'm a poet that writes solely on what i feel at the time i write.If i feel lonely,i write a poem about lonliness and add a story behind that,if im angry then my gorey little mind will just take over and write what it feels,hope whoever reads enjoys.Many of my poems come from a little bit of inspiration,Edgar Allan Poe gives me new ideas with every poem i read and i try to use a little bit of his style while keeping it all my own. more…
