SUFFER
#WritcoPoemPrompt21
You sat with me under the shade of the trees,
Reading out the words that made no sense,
Not once did you lose faith,
Or let me be,
The slow and steady learner,
The butt of all the jokes,
Duffer! Failure! And more...
Yet you sacrificed all
You ever had
For the slight chance
That it might better me,
In even one slight manner...
So now I say it is
Time!
My time to better you,
In any way possible.
With supreme sacrifice,
And all the love
And Dedication
Your example has
Taught me to
SUFFER.
