Rondeau

I haven't blogged in FOREVER. And I know that a lot has happened and I'm slackin', but I still write and journal a lot. (: I write every day in creative writing, and usually I hate what I write in that class. But today we had to write a rondeau, which is just a type of poem with the rhyme scheme aabba aaba aabbaa. The last line of the last two stanzas (which I've marked 'a') should repeat part of/ the entire opening line of the rondeau. Anyway, I actually liked the one I wrote about two seconds ago, so here it is.

You cannot hide your lies from me,




Though I'll admit I've been deceived.



Your thrashing words plastered in my mind,



I endured that pain for the longest time.



And still your promises, you've yet to keep.







I'm naive? Yes, that may be.



Every foolish line, I believed.



You laugh. "How could she be so blind?"



But you cannot hide your lies from me.







It would seem you have the victory.



But revenge will remain my destiny.



I see you in your cave, disguised,



As you wait for your next victim to arrive.



You cannot hide your lies from me.
