Every Night I Say Your Name (Lento)

by Jenni Marie   Jul 7, 2007


Sweet love flowing through my veins
Praying we'll always be together
Came along and eased my pain
Want to stay with you forever

Heat and passion are in my heart
Wondering if you could ever feel the same
Hoping that we will never have to part
Each night before I sleep, whisper your name

Lento-Consists of 2 stanza's each with four lines.
Rhyme scheme of abcb defe. To go further but not required, use the rhyme scheme abab cdcd
The FIRST words of each stanza should also rhyme.
For an added challenge one may write a four versed lento to become a double lento or a 6 versed lento to become a triple lento.
