Young Love

Empty promises whispered to stars Sitting on the porch while it rains Midnight dancing to the sound of guitars Road trips spent singing on trains Smoke filled rooms that smell like cigars Blindfolds and handcuffs playing games Ecstasy high feeling like superstars Sharing stories of sadness and pains Watching tail lights of speeding cars Alcohol and drugs running through veins Broken hearts and open scars Blood stained sheets and bruised forearms Speeding on highways and switching lanes Drunk fist fights in closing bars Morning after popping pills for migraines Experience altering young adult brains

Sounds like a good Saturday night out to me, ok, not really lol. I’d call this form quatrain. Very well written, I like it, you’re a natural rhymer. Take care, Richard

Wow, to me, this starts so innocent and beautiful but quickly becomes excessive, you've shown how life can spiral out of control so quick. great writing :)
