Writing as someone else.

Today, I challenged myself to write as someone else after finishing my STAR test. This is what I came up with:

Why are you so afraid of love?

Love is the best thing a person can have

Better than money in a bank

Better than the sun's glow

Better than a wish upon a star

Why do you shy away, Love?

I will never harm you.

I'll only take your hand in mine

If someone's already hurt you,

I'll take you away somewhere far

Has someone else betrayed your love?

I pray it isn't so

I'll hunt them down and make them pay

I'll chase away your demons

I'll rid you of all your scars

Will you let me love you, Love?

That's all I've ever wanted

To give you life's most treasured gift

To see you smile in a white dress

Then your life and my life can just be ours.
