Not Everyone Wants To See You Thrive. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBC DEFG HHHIJI KLHHMM KKKKKK NNNNIn the quietest part of the night | A |
When you hover between dark and light | A |
Wondering if you can float away on dreams | B |
Hoping they won't turn into screams | B |
What seemed as a goal has been spiralling downstream | C |
- | |
Into the ever green the So called | D |
world of milk and honey | E |
Just when you stay flout into the simmer of dusk and dawn | F |
Wondering if your own dreams will keep you live if life won't be telling you no lie | G |
- | |
So I've been told you are useless | H |
Shifting my mind to truculence | H |
Which has brainwashed my heart to be truceless | H |
My mentality became that of a failure | I |
Was made to believe I can't make it | J |
My dreams were now a horror | I |
- | |
Those meant to encourage you | K |
Are the ones holding a grudge | L |
Instead of supporting your dreams | H |
They block all of your streams | H |
Glancing at every chance of you falling | M |
Because they have been waiting for you to come crawling | M |
- | |
It is true people can make you or break you | K |
Standing by the sides pretending to praise you | K |
In their hearts they've already erased you | K |
Simply because they can't stand your breakthrough | K |
This probably is their worst stay through | K |
Wishing they could just drive thru | K |
- | |
Those meant to stay they'll stay | N |
Never cry on those who runaway | N |
For those who mean harm shall surely pay | N |
Just don't act like a prey | N |
