one of the few that i've tried to rhyme with.. just honest feelings wrapped in rhyme


Unanswered Hopes

Hidden within her thoughts,
Hidden behind her eyes
Is the longing for the love
The love; not lies

Disguised as love
She's tired of those lies
The lies that scar her
And the lies that hide

She feels the pain
Without the hope
She's lost herself
And she cannot cope

This girl cries alone
Laying down longing
She wants someone male
Someone who's strong

Her mother is no one to follow
And her father is very long gone
She wants to find someone trustworthy
Someone who's yet again strong

He can pick her up
When she falls
And help her out
When she calls

She has no problem
Giving it back
Helping him out
Whenever she can

She's tired of her choices
Of the men that she makes
In her darkened room
As she lies awake

She wonders who she is
And wonders who she'll be
She wonders if she'll find him
Once again asking "Will it only be me?"

She lays there in bed
Still crying her tears
Her eyes are full of wonder
And her life is full of fears

Her silent prayers
Echo in her head
For the one person to come
The one who'll say yes

The one who'll stay
Right by her side
Stay and not run
To the easier life

Hidden within her thoughts,
Hidden behind her eyes
Is the longing for the love
For that love will never die.

chasingtheday The PoetBay support member heart!
seems to me you are trying too had here - in the first verse alone you use the word 'hidden' twice and the word 'love'. then the word 'lies' keeps popping up, three times in the second verse etc.
