Tired Of Rhyme Poem by Bernadeth Tolentino

Tired Of Rhyme



I'm tired of writing
poems that rhyme.

Trying to put words that don't make sense together
Just to make it sound pretty.
Rhymes hold back my imagination.
Constantly looking, searching for the perfect word

Why, when I can say what I want.
In any way.

Slowly sculpting lines
without relying on the line before it.
Until a poem

is finished.

Beautiful writing, I agree. I have been told it is called the 'Rhyming Disease, ' I am glad you haven't caught it. Great stuff here.
