A Hidden Soul {Parquette}

by dollwithafrown   Dec 10, 2006


A hidden soul is her recipe
To heal her from her broken wounds and hurt
If she does not speak, and hides away from everything
The heart can be whole, along with her dignity

A hidden soul is her recipe
To bury the hurt under her delicate shirt
She wishes she was a bird, with big flapping wings
Ruining her enemies and burying them in dirt

A hidden soul is her recipe
To escape the nightmares, and scary happenings
Why couldn't she just have ignored his teasing flirts
Before things got harmful, and aggravating?

A hidden soul is her recipe
To heal her from her broken wounds and hurt
If she keeps on hiding from everything
Then she can get through absolutely anything

````````````````````````````````

A Parquette has four stanzas, each containing four lines.
The first line of the poem is repeated in every stanza as
the first line. Each line, except the first, has 10-12
syllables. The rhyme scheme is: "abcaabcbacbcabcc".

(Written for a contest). This is also my first ever Parquette.

    It's easy to hide away in fear and not let anything happen that could hurt one worse than one already has been hurt. But if one never takes the risk, one never will experience the good things in life. Very nice read. I can tell you I've never been able to do restricted poems like that, myself. lol.
