Fragile Mindset (Triolet)

by BECCA lessTHANthree   Jan 22, 2007


Fragile mindset, broken heart
Jaded, torn to shreds
Shattered tears, ripped apart
Fragile mindset, broken heart
Memories, won't depart
Fraying, hanging on by threads
Fragile mindset, broken heart
Jaded, torn to shreds

-------------------------------------------
A Triolet is a poetic form consisting of only 8 lines. Within a Triolet, the 1st, 4th, and 7th lines

    Oh. Excellent. One of your best, by far. You're very good with set rhyme schemes [try them more =]].
    I loved the rhyming, the flow, and the story. Not too cliche and the title was very drawing. Great job on this. Definately deserves a 5.

    This was a good use of the form. I tried using it once, but it didn't turn out all that well.
    I think maybe there were some cliche ideas in this, but just the creative use of form makes it good.
