Till When? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGHD CIJI KLDDI EDMNM EOEPO DEQEETo the hills l lifted my eyes in awe for where cometh my help | A |
As the ticking clock turns days into weeks weeks into months and even months into years | B |
My heart flipped and flapped in anxiety for the hope of better days that never come | C |
So I asked every day till when | D |
- | |
Life's iron hands keep crushing me like the metate | E |
Till when will this chilly weather keep hunting my feeling | F |
For I'm a dreamer with unstoppable hope with something to believe | G |
But this world turns me upside down like a swinging ball | H |
So I wait and asked when | D |
- | |
I ascend to realms above the mundane with words of wisdom | C |
Making emotions flow like a river to places the weaver | I |
Till when will our hearts be toyed with as we come clean | J |
In lieu I present my till when to the maker | I |
- | |
Time keeps passing by like a running stream | K |
Life is still on its journey and never ending it seems | L |
But here I am keep asking myself Till when | D |
Till When | D |
Will the truth remain hidden from us forever | I |
- | |
Till when will my endless patience end | E |
Till When | D |
My dreams and hopes keep vanishing without a trace | M |
And the assurance of love no more in my life at a glance | N |
Will I have to continue dueling in this place | M |
- | |
Even the uncertainty chills me like an arctic wind | E |
While my heart continues its jovial spin | O |
Is it too much to ask for one final kind | E |
I'm completely lost in thoughts | P |
And confusion and doubt are starting to creep within | O |
- | |
Till When Till when | D |
Must I continue to fake the smiles each night | E |
And put on masks instead of polite fights | Q |
The feeling we share is gradually fading out of sight | E |
Till when do I need to hold myself so tight | E |
