11/15-Rhythm

"Thinking of You" by Katy Perry
Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one
I still got the seed

You said move on
Where do I go
I guess second best
Is all I will know

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes

You're like an Indian summer
In the middle of winter
Like a hard candy
With a surprise center
How do I get better
Once I've had the best
You said there's
Tons of fish in the water
So the waters I will test

He kissed my lips
I taste your mouth
He pulled me in
I was disgusted with myself

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into...

You're the best
And yes I do regret
How I could let myself
Let you go
Now the lesson's learned
I touched it I was burned
Oh I think you should know

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Oh won't you walk through
And bust in the door
And take me away
Oh no more mistakes
Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay...

The rhythm of this song gives the lyrics a great significance because it rhymes through out the entire song. There are many similes in this song which give it that poetic feel. The rhythm allows the song to flow very smoothly. This song is so relateable that anyone could easily like it. The lyrics itself  is why I especially like this song, they have such a strong meaning for me since I can definitely relate to this song completely. Also because the song rhymes so well, its very catchy.

sonnet "High Five"

Five girls no boys,
Our closeness can never be broken
Our favorite past times were fighting over toys,
I wouldn't trade one for a token.
Our ages range from fourteen to thirty,
But our bond remains ageless,
This relationship will always remain sturdy,
All the memories we share are priceless.
Being the middle child was never all that easy,
Two older and two younger everyone seemed paired,
Having all these sisters wasn't always so breezy,
Unfortunately always being compared.
We could never be torn apart
I hold my sisters close to my heart.
