Done

Done

A Poem by Collette Paige
"

I'm done writing about love

"

I'm Done.

I'm done writing about love.

I'm going to give it a shove

and lock the door behind it.

Even if it wimpers like a lost kit,

I will tell it the truth

"I have spent to long in the fountain of youth!

I must leave it and become mature!"

I will call, and make sure the lock is secure.

I'm Done.

Author's Note

Collette Paige
There are so many thigns to write about, and all people do is write about love. Because it's "easy" or they're "going through problems." And I know I do that, so I'm done. I'm moving on to mature matters that adults can understand. Mature matters that have more of a purpose than "I GOT DUMPED!!! WAAAAH!"

This is great! It speaks of the maturity we must all grasp onto eventually. The rhyme is excellent, too, though I must complain you need to shake it up and experiment a bit with your rhyme scheme! All of your poems are:
A
A
B
B

Try something new; like ABA or ABCA. There's a plethora of new rhyme schemes to choose from. Also try putting the poem in the middle (new colors are not really necessary, that just takes away the attention from the poem itself; and if it does not exude magnificence in itself, then surely it is not a worthy read). I try and shake up my rhyme schemes at least every now and then, and I'm not saying for you to be more like me, just suggesting something that might make more people more attracted to your poems. You have a lot of potential that you have to yield, call me a hypocrite but I'm calling myself an advice giver!
Also, would writing longer poems every now and then kill you?!
