1. Rhyming poetry to change your day · 1. Searching for you

The roses wilting

The roses wilting

Over the side of the glass

Sensed they had given up

Could not forever last

My sickening feeling

Inside of me

Sadness seeping out

Wanting to be freed

They look so tired

As if it’s the end

Flowers to one side

No way to mend

As I gaze down

Studying the floor

A tear leaves my eye

I can’t do this anymore

Grabbing the stalks

Piercing my hand

Throwing with force

Don’t care where they land

As I collapse to the floor

Feeling sorry for myself

I have given up

I need to find help

Forbidden

Stop doing it

It’s forbidden

What your doing to me

.

These secret messages

In my head

Or are they? maybe…

.
It is like a whisper

To my ears like silk

Whispering your wants

.
I think about you

But it cannot come true

But my heart does want

.
Your forbidden body

Your amazing lips

Enticing me in

.

Sing to me

my temptress

Pull me within

.

Kiss me,

Let’s embrace

Undress each other’s sin

.

Touch each other

Fulfil our needs

Caress each other’s skin

.

Sinning, touching,

caressing

Arms and legs entwined

.

Forbidden is our unity

but today

you will be mine

You make me happy

Please sing along…….

Love me tender, love me true

I just keep on loving you

Whatever you do to me girl

I’ll love you and I always will

You make me happy every day

To me you matter in every way

Our lives shine bright just like the sun

When our paths crossed I truly won

1. Rhyming poetry to change your day · 1. Searching for you

Girl in the rain

I see you there in the street

I can’t take my eyes off of you, just a peep

It’s pouring with rain five pm

You shake your umbrella again and again

You don’t see me, I’m invisible

Unnamed and in your eyes feeble

How do I get you to notice me?

Could our paths cross? Is it to be?

You light up a cigarette take down a breath

On your telephone, what you gonna do next?

You look at me, just a glance

I’m staring at you in a trance

A smile crosses your face is it for me?

I think yes, maybe it could be

I wave my hand just to say hi

You wave your hand too, It’s a lie

I decide to move to approach you

My feet don’t move stuck like glue

This guy pushes past me, knocks me down

I start to pick myself up, I turn around

She’s hugging him, that pushy guy

Just my luck, she’s not for me. Why!

1. Rhyming poetry to change your day

Forever happy

.

I wait just to hear your next word

You have me here like a sheep in your herd

Spending time with you is effortless

I study your movements, every geste

How you talk, how you smile, when you’re happy

When we cuddle close, warm, hugging gladly

The silent moments never awkward, never too long

When we sing together along to your favourite song

When I joke and you laugh with your little dimple

And that spot on your face, your little pimple

You’re perfect in every way you’d ever need to be

That’s why I love you, and hope to stay forever happy

1. Rhyming poetry to change your day

I dream of you

I have just one photo in my hand

Admiration for you as you stand

I’ve never talked you in front of me

You are perfect as can be

You cannot know me I don’t exist

We have never met, never kissed

You have your life I have mine here

It’s strange what I’m feeling, rather queer

You excite me by warming my blood

My emotions take hold and start to flood

How can you do this when we have never met

An impossible fact that I just cannot get?

You could be here or the other side of the world

Our paths would never cross, your beauty like a pearl

I can always wonder about about what it would seem

The moment we met and I awake from my dream

1. Rhyming poetry to change your day

Money controlling you

Money, how it has control over us

It shapes our lives and causes fuss

Starting off with pocket money

Those little coins you find funny

In the shop what do you do?

Steal some sweets and run like a fool

Turn sixteen, mum asks you for rent

Get a job earning nothing, go on get bent!

Let’s move out, go get a flat

Overdraft sorted, in it, twat!

Credit card sorted, let’s go for it now

Two grand debt, well done kid, wow!

Oh I need a car, I need it today

Listen to no one, bought same day

Pound it at a hundred down the motorway

Pisses out petrol, firemen on way

Another debt, repairs to be done

Down the garage, oh what fun!

Debt piles up, more and more

Noting down what you spend, what a chore!

Try a bit of gambling, oh doing well

Roulette, poker, betting, lost, must not dwell

Ten grand now, more interest each payday

Can’t live like this, not this way

More and more depressed, don’t know what to do?

Hope for a miracle and hope it’s not you!
