Girls Like Me (Double Lento)

by Jenni Marie   May 26, 2007


There aren't many girls like me
Intelligent, strong and unique
Give me a chance, you will see
That knowing me is a treat.

Dare you to let me in
Make me centre of your world
Discarding my love would be a sin
Come make me your only girl.

Rare, yet real as they come
You know my words aren't lies
Don't tell me our love is done
Don't be the one to make me cry.

Stare deeply into my eyes
It's my eyes that hold the key
Hopefully you'll finally realize
That there are few girls like me.

Lento-Consists of two stanzas, with a rhyme scheme of abcb defe
To take it further but not required, use the rhyme scheme of abab cdcd
First words of each stanza must rhyme.
There is no fixed syllable structure, keeping a flowing rhythm is recommended.
For an added challenge one may write a 4 verse lento and call it a double lento or a 6 versed to become a triple lento.
