Help! Advice heavily needed!!
Iām trying to write something for my friend on her birthday but Iām struggling.
Usually I just write in free verse but I really want to do a rhyming one for this. Personally I think when I try to rhyme it comes off as childish and emotionless. So if you all have any advice or any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it!
Edit: thank you all for giving your input! I shared it with her and she loved it. I just added one more stanza so Iāll put the finished product here:
For four years weāve known each other as friends
Through lifeās ups and downs there is still no sight of an end
Through the nights of never ending darkness
When life was often heartless
Through the blinding brightness from the rays of the sun
I have never stopped loving you no matter the reason
No matter the time of day
We have always chose to stay
In the late night talks
The flirting that never stops
With the kindness of your heart
And your brain thatās just so smart
You are the moon to my stars
The bandaid on my scars
You light me up inside as if you were the sun and I was the blue sky needing your everlasting light
You always shine so bright
To you my love
Your voice is as beautiful to me as a morning dove
And your thoughts are as soft as a cool breeze on a day in the spring
With a love that always leaves me smiling
