I’m trying to write a poem for my poetry class and I am having the hardest time to write one of the lines. - Help.com

hmmm…
okay.

It’s a parody of shakespeare’s sonnet 18. i know it’s not funny but i just didn’t feel like making it funny here it is.

Shall I compare thee to a winter’s frost?
Thou art more cold and less forgiving
Frozen winds chill my soul with feelings lost
And December’s days were much more willing
Sometimes too much I think of your eyes, blue
And often in the moonlight of the mountain
My stomach churns just remembering you
By chance, and nature’s changing courses, amounting
To the eternal thoughts that will be ultimately forgotten
And the scent of the smoke that somehow still lingers
?

I can’t finish it because I don’t know a word to do the rhyme with forgotten so I can’t think of how to start the line because I don’t know how to end it. And in turn, I haven’t finished the poem because of that.
Does that make sense?

ha. that’s cool.
i read it and giggled a bit.

Oh that might actually really work. I’m writing this about personal experience from a recent breakup so I could throw that into it because my sweatshirt still smells like his cigarette smoke…

How does this sound

And the scent of the smoke that somehow still lingers
In my favorite sweatshirt, embedded into the cotton

and now.. I have to think of a line that will rhyme with lingers.

How would you like to be repaid for that? ha.

How much do you charge? ha.
Okay. I can put you in the credits.

oOOh.

well. what rhymes with lingers? i need an ending line to finish off the first 12 lines! ah.

ah. okay.
