Challenge
ABCABC
Write a structured poem with an ABCABC rhyme scheme. As many lines and stanzas as you like. If you go past 6 lines you can continue with ABC or switch to DEFDEF and so on. (If you're really sneaky, you can even change the rhyme scheme at the end entirely, so long as the first six lines conform.)
You Complete Me
As I wander through my memories, one thing stands out quite clear—
that your presence in my life has filled a void within my soul,
and you’ve given me a gift I know I never can repay.
Most importantly, you saved me from myself; I thank you dear.
While providing for our future has become my major goal,
I will never be too focused to bring joy to you each day.
Now whenever something happens, good or bad, you’re always near.
If I’m ever feeling broken, with a smile you make me whole,
and the love you shower on me, thrills me more than I can say.
Having you standing beside me means there's nothing left to fear,
and no matter what life throws at me, with punches I will roll;
for tomorrow promises to be much sweeter than today.
