Too Good Is True {Ottava Rima}

by xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex   Jul 30, 2006


I gazed into your gorgeous touching eyes,
And I realized from the very first day,
That too good is true couldn't be a lie.
You told me you'd give me a sunshine ray,
Sparkling and gleaming you certainly tried,
And told you instead you could have me your way.
So gently took my hand a pull me close,
Kiss me on the lips and say you love me most.

    Now that was a beautiful unique love poem!! i love the line "That too good is true couldn't be a lie." cause i hate it when ppl say things are too good to be true. u stayed at ten syllables for the whole poem except for two lines. the 6th and the last. was there reason for this?
