Have you ever been in a new relationship and thought everything was going well and then there was that moment when you thought “OMG, what the heck just happened?” Uh huh, me too! I would love to hear your stories, so please share!
What happened to you? Spouting allegations I recognize you no more You are a strange aberration Like a two headed monster With whom am I dealing An anomaly of a man Who can leave me reeling
Unable to collect myself when you turn on a dime My feelings muddled Being slow is now a crime Confidence has been lost I bounce off your arrogance Spinning and confused I doubt my relevance
Grace at D'Verse Poets is supporting our Poetry Form Ghazalwhich was hosted by Gay Cannon two weeks ago.
A Ghazal is a poem that is made up like an odd numberedchain of couplets, where each couplet is an independentpoem. It should be natural to put a comma at the end ofthe first line. The Ghazal has a refrain of one to threewords that repeat, and an inline rhyme that preceedes therefrain. Lines 1 and 2, then every second line, has thisrefrain and inline rhyme, and the last couplet should referto the authors pen-name…The rhyming scheme is AA bA cA dA eA etc.
Our communication
is lacking, it’s almost nonexistent
Your attitude is that of
a scalded cat
When can we have a
conversation?
Surely we can do better
than that?
A hot tin roof
is where you’ve been
Time to come down
and settle the score
Harmony is what we need
in our relationship
Like it was
once before
Stop moving away from me
as if I’m not here
You are acting like
a stranger
Someone I don’t know
Come on darling talk to me
We are in clear
and present danger
