Affair

by Lenny   Jan 9, 2008


Thats the way it goes
Tripping over toes
And you find yourself
In love
With the wrong man

You plan it all this way
And then, within a day
You can find yourself
Lost
In someone elses words

You cant hide your smile
Thinking all the while
Of what it would be like
To be in
His arms

And then the worlds afire
You know what you desire
And your heart beats
An octave louder
Just for
Him

Tragic though it seems
Relationships in dreams
And this secret love burns
Only in your
Sleep

Theres a stranger by your side
While you try to hide
You re in his arms
Now, but
Not for long

The sandman comes singing
Tears are stinging
And you rest your head
To share it with
Affair.

    Effective piece. The flow is flawless and you did great job with rhymes, avoided to sound too typical. I like the format of this poem and it is written greatly with a lot of originality.
    I can relate to this in a way.
    You truly have a way with words :)

    Keep up!

    WOW! A rhyming poem.
    Don't come across those too often under your name.
    I'm used to your poems not having that much/no rhyme so I'm contemplating whether I like that or not.
    I shall give you my answer sometime later but i SHALL give you an answer.
