Anne-Lise Andresen Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

- Game Is Over -

I know her shoelaces do not have loops
They may be used as spaghetti in soups
A girl who dreams, are tired of getting hurt
Each kiss and hug felt right, but she kept alert

Her words on paper, dreams of a better place
A frustrating feeling has participated in the game with grace
Accepting does not mean losing hope, the eagle is flying high
Her eyes were always smiling, now she whispers goodbye
