Letting Go... [Acrostic]

by Debbie   Apr 15, 2007


Left alone with pieces of heart untended,
Each moment of happiness; no longer she pretended.
To witness the stars in her eyes darkling,
To listen to the whispers of her heart drifting
Into such temptation, she resisted to unfold;
Never shall the secret of her soul be foretold.
Gone is the rhythm of her soul, calling out his name.

Gone are the times which afflicted bruises and pain.
Out for five long years, she finally blew off the flame.

    You didn't only make an Acrostic (like that isn;t hard enough) You also made it rhyme very nicely =] Like it! =]

    Poetry doesn't need a rhyme to make a good poem, I know.
    But being as your poem rhymed through out the whole poem except ;
    "To witness the stars in her eyes darkling,
    To listen to the whispers of her heart drifting"
    It sorta threw off the flow.

    Also I don't know if [darkling] is the correct word for this.

    But other than that it was an excellent poem. =]
    It may be in the sad section but its full of hope.
    Well done. :]
