Dear Mystery

by Kaila   Apr 16, 2008


Yearning for that person the one who's wanting me,
Searching but are you out there, my beautiful mystery?
Peeking around each corner, sneaking behind each door,
Running down the hallways, scrambling on the floor.

Do you know I'm out there? Are you searching too?
Please just shout my name, if only you knew.
What is your name my beautiful mystery, do you know mine?
Just jump out from your hiding place and we will be fine.

Sprinting around the corner but as usual it is bare,
Gazing down the dark hallway it's daring but should I dare?
Tip toeing across the floor making every step slow and sly,
Come out; come out wherever you are no need to be shy.

My imaginary mystery please don't make me search anymore!
I've had all that I can take please just jump out from that door!
Counting down to nothing and still you are not there,
You are not over there or, here, you are not anywhere.

Do you even exist, on this planet beautiful mystery?
Do I have a fate or is my love life just history?
If you are searching for me please tell me loud and clear,
I am tired of being solo, dear mystery I need you here.

    Very nice write!! A couple spots where it seems the rythm skips a little but picks right back up. the last stanza is a bit rough and the third stanza could be also. I think after a time not reading this and then comming back you might see the same things.
    But all in all a very good write.

    Now this was good. To me though it felt more like lyrics which I liked. The long lines were effective. It's good to see people actually writing with good long lines lately. Instead of people saying that they look untidy. The rhyme scheme was good. You stuck to it. Even though me and mystery are not common rhymes they still came together to create a nice rhyme.

    The emotion was beautiful. There wasn't any lack of it what so ever throughout this entrie poem. The meaning was great as was the flow.

    I liked the title, but I've also come to see your poetry reads alot like a story. I like that at times. Most people don't as they say that poetry isn't a story, but I say there usually is a story within each poem, wether it's a lesson in life or a love story.

    Overall a nicely written love poem ~Mel
