Help! Advice heavily needed!!

Iā€™m trying to write something for my friend on her birthday but Iā€™m 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 Iā€™ll put the finished product here:



For four years weā€™ve known each other as friends

Through lifeā€™s 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 thatā€™s 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
