Patricia Tam Poet Free verse

The Man With Blue Eyes

There once was a girl
That had beauty and grace
Though beaten and broken
Had a bright smiling face

There once was a girl
Who felt aged and wise
Her heart was as large 
As the stars in her eyes

There once was a girl
Who longed to be loved
Though she never quite 
Found it till the man with blue eyes

He was strong and sound
He was older and wiser
Wipped the tears from her face
So trusted the man with blue eyes

There once was a girl 
Who fell for the lies
Beliving and trusting
The man with blue eyes

There is now a girl
Her smile erased
Her heart splitting and bleeding
A lesson she learned 

From the man with blue eyes

Kelleyana Junique April 12, 2011 at 12:58 AM My goodness what a thoughtful piece. Life is filled with choices, and sometimes we made or choose the wrong choice, but this is how we learnt from our mistakes. I like each stanza of this poem from the beginning until the end. Very well done, keep on writing, kel.
