Would that those spiteful words Be unsaid So my cracked heart stings no more Had I not seen you then surely my happiness would still be in tact Our love song was unsung I accepted the ending and have only myself to blame That ship had sailed You had slipped from sight beneath the waves of life’s disorder and I pulled you back to the surface Can a sight be unseen? Can words ever be unheard?
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.
