My first assignment! Lesson #1: The Alphabet Soup...
The Love Not Shared In ROME

I'm...

Running away from the feeling,
Remembering how much love could hurt;
Risking it all, I could never do again.

'Cause...

Once upon a time, I fell in love too.
Once upon a dream, I thought it could come true.
Once upon a love, there was me and you.

But...

Memories, that's what they all are now,
Making me cry before I go to sleep,
Making me not believe in love anymore.

So...

Even though I feel for you like this,
Eternity, for us, will never exist.
Everything ends without even a beginning, no bliss.

Rome, where we met, eye to eye.
Rome, where we say our goodbye...




"Alphabet Soup"
--The simplest variation of alphabet poetry consists of creating a twenty-six line poem using the alphabet, with lines beginning with consecutive letters of the alphabet from A to Z.
--Another version would be to only use vowels (in order, either frontward or backwards) as your beginning letters of each line.
--An additional variation would be to create a poem (with any line count desired) using a single common letter to begin each line.
--For a blending of this variation and an acrostic poem, you could have each stanza’s lines have the same unique beginning letter, but then the stanzas would spell out something.
