Here's a poem I wrote a couple years back. I am reposting here, in a more appropriate place.
Hope it is still enjoyed...

How dare you die for me.
I did not deserve it.
None of it.
Yet you did.
How dare you.
You put yourself through
such pain and torment.
... For me.
Why did you do such a thing
When I am so unworthy?
I did not deserve a thing.
Yet you died.
You took the torture.
You took the ridicule.
I put you there.
I killed you.
Willingly you went.
Willingly you suffered.
And for what?
For me?
I cannot believe you.
You did this on your own,
You did this to save.
But why?
What is so important?
I am nothing and empty.
Do you see something different?
I am blind.
And you died?
What will that do?
Will it help me see?
Well, will it?
How dare you,
You who died for me.
But you rose.
You rose from the dead.
You did all of that.
You took on all of it.
For me.
...For me.
How dare me
To dare you.
When you died,
When you rose again.
How dare me wonder,
When you died to save
Not yourself,
But me.
