I wish so much that I could rhyme
The rhythm makes me wish for time
When I could write such wondrous lines
All for the purpose to define
Me.

I broke the rhyme, it happens so
Often that I barely dare
To go
To rhyme
To change this tempo
‘ere I go
it’s gone.

When I start to hear a rhyme
I lose myself, yes, every time
I wish that I could write such lines
Such lines with power to define
You.

Shattered, once again, I do
This to you, barely daring
To go
To rhyme
To ask this question
To break the scheme of such perfect things
When everything moves in such perfect rings
That one misstep,
One syllable,
You’re gone.
