Dairy of a Lover


When the lights in the sky goes dim
Then on us the night season beckon
Touching the greenery is the moonbeam
Serene and beautiful I must reckon
Serenade sounds whispering to my ear
An atmosphere only love could bear
Seas of memory floods my heart
The Pains you bore tears me apart
Just for my sake, you took the blame
Yet the suffering brought you fame
Greater than that of Romeo & Juliet
Your memoirs I wear like a bracelet
That I may never betray your trust
Being with you forever, my only thrust

In a way "Dairy" of a lover (rather than "Diary" which is, I assume what you meant) is actually appropriate, because this poem tries to milk emotion from the reader. You have some nice words in your kit, but a word of advice. Avoid using the word "Pain". It's just so overused in bad poetry it's hard to find a way to use it effectively. Show the emotion, don't tell us about it. Paint a picture and let people draw the emotion from it themselves. You're forcing the rhyme without pairing it wi

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
