we who write in rhyme
all have a rhyming good time
it's because we rhyme
that we're happy all the time

our many lines of rhyme
speak in a manner so sublime
we'll only ever adopt rhyme
for it's truly a meter sublime*

the regular beat of rhyme
is a shared paradigm
all praise we give to rhyme
*so awesome a paradigm

Seema
Your hazel colored eyes
Hides so many young lies
You say my heart is like gold
But then you mock me, as I am old

Love is what I fell for
You bribed me off, tore me apart
The tears that now pour
Weren't evident from the start

It's sad to walk away
Seeing you shine with your father
But as you always say
I remind you of your precious mother...

Not all step moms or partners are bad. Just a thought of write.
In the darkest of night
when your heart feels despair,
when you feel you’re all alone

[within your heart,
                       I’m always there]


When the sun kisses the morning
and you feel beauty in the air,
when your soul fills with love

[within your heart,
                       I’m always there]


When those days turn cloudy
and you feel no one cares,
when you’re made to feel less

[within your heart,
                       I’m always there]


When you admire the rainbow's beauty
as the hues shine with flair,
stretching from mountains to ocean

[within your heart,
                     I’m always there]


When joyfulness overtakes your heart
and you want nothing more than to share,
close your eyes, feel me within

[I never leave your heart,
                               I’m always there]

There within the silence
with your lips curved into a smile
the words that danced
within the colors of your eyes
told me everything
heaven and hell could every be
and the truth of love became as simple
as letting my heart beat
Starlight, glowing and bright
beautifully twinkling and divine,
send upon, this very night
a kiss, to the one who’s mine.

Let him feel, love of heart
through the fates’ own design,
loving kiss, to comfort and soothe
his soul to mine, entwined.

Let your powers flow
through sparkles and shine,
upon his soul, please bestow
this loving kiss of mine.
