Because of You (Cento Triolet)




I was born the day you kissed me
All my past finally erased
One look from you; I’m who I was meant to be.
I was born the day you kissed me
Now, here we are; the future’s all we see
The short time we’ve had are just a taste.
I was born the day you kissed me
All my past finally erased.





Author notes

The first line of this triolet is taken from While You Loved Me By Rascall Flatts.  Enjoy.

    This is a beautiful triolet that speaks of such a deep love. I love this form. I know it's not as easy as it looks and that allows me a great appreciation for it. You really did a wonderful job here. Thank you for entering a form poem in this contest and good luck to you!

    Very nicely done. Though I am unfamiliar with the song, the line is a superb choice for a loving poem such as this. ~Jim

    Thank you for your comments! I just learned about this form. For me, it's a simple way to get a lot of feelings off my chest. Of course, you don't need to start with the line of a popular song. I just chose to because it gives me the muse I need to continue!

    Again my dear, you have penned a wonderful triolet using a line from a song as inspiration. And I must say, I admire your choice in music. Nicely done.
