Oh this is our love

by Elise   May 1, 2012


All the girls like to think of love,
So we smile and pretend to be a dove.

All of us sing a love song like larks,
When inside of us hidden million sparks.

We look into boys eyes,
And when we betrayed part of us dies.

It's sad that we can't find where true love lies,
All that we hear is our loves sad cries.

We lock our heart in copper cage,
and wait untill it dies from weariness and age.

It wasn't too long before I unedrstood my fate,
But of course it turned out far too late.

My larks didn't sing.
And then I understood it was loves last sting....

    I thought this poem was great. A little bit of help for you. Try to really think of words that don't seem forcedvto set a rhyme. Some of these seem that way. Maybe it's just me. And watch for some grammar errors. Such as change in line six "we" to "we're. And just watch syllables when rhyming. you don`t want one line with 4 syllables, then the next with ten. It doesn't flow as well. But all in all this was done great. Had a great message. Nice work. :)

    I likd this. It had sad and happy moments in it and it did flow really nicely. One thing in the sixth stanza you got a little typo with the word understand. ;) but other than that I really enjoyed reading this. Nice job! :)

    "All the girls like to think of love,
    So we smile and pretend to be a dove.

    All of us sing a love song like larks,
    When inside of us hidden million sparks."

      Thank you :) When I was writting it I thought of Johanna from Sweeney Todd (2007) If you haven't seen it do look at it. It's a bit grim but it is amazing.
