Ode to No

by beauty from ashes   Feb 15, 2013


I'm so used to hearing "no"
It doesn't surprise me anymore
It's the reason I don't ask
It's why I'm always home.

It'd be nice to hear a "yes"
Once in a blue moon.
Maybe show a little trust
And just let me let loose.

You know I don't do bad things
I'm "good girl" through and through
Asking for some privacy
Doesn't mean I've turned on you.

So quit restricting details
And making me stress out.
Did you ever think that these things
Is why I'm wanting out?

    I know exactly how you feel. And how much you're stressing out. You really do deserve a little freedom.

    And may I say, sometime rhyming can sound forced, because you're just desperately trying to make it rhyme, even if it doesn't make sense, but this was fantastic, and it never got off topic or sounded like it was choking on a rhyme. Fabulous piece.
