Chance

by Kurt   Jan 22, 2007


Coming up soon
Is the Valentine's Dance
I must decide
Whether to take the chance

I want to ask you
If you'd like to go
Of course I'm afraid
Of you saying no

That's why I wait
Biding my time
Slowly rehearsing
Every single line

Let me speak
I have much to say
I will not breakdown
I will be okay

She is so beautiful
So gorgeous in my eyes
Even more outstanding
Than the star lit skies

But all that work
Has gone to waste
It seems to be
I won't satiate my taste

Because I did not ask
I skipped the dance
I turned my back
On my last chance

    After seeing your icon, "fat kids are harder to kidnap",and laughing uncontrollably, i couldn't help but check out one of your poems.!

    Aww, that was such a cute poem with a sad ending. Rhyming didn't seem forced, your story was spelled out in this poem which is good. Great Job!

    Awe. This started off so sweet and then the ending was so sad. Your rhythm and rhyme were good! Nice job!
