A Promising Girl Poem by Trevor Schulte

A Promising Girl



There's a girl I know
that brings a smile to my heart
reflecting a life that is
a beautiful work of art
Her captivating smile
brightens my day
making my inner-pain
flutter far away
The feeling that she leaves
makes my heart believe
that her love
need not be achieved
Yet, its given with
an act of simplicity
with no attachments
or wanted publicity
The friendship
that she does bestow
makes me comfortable
like I'm now her bro
If she only knew
the impact she gives
on each and every life
that will forever live
She transforms
each broken heart
making it feel special
like its set apart
The mere smile
of this unique girl
can brighten
even the darkest of worlds
When she walks into a room
spirits begin to lift
setting each and every
mind adrift
She makes people feel inclined
to do something greater
pushing them to strive for it now
instead of later
The feeling she does spread
lifts every head
and each pain and worry
are now dead
But left in its place
is a new set pace
to push onwards
and finish the race
Little does this girl know
what she has done
and the pride that she gives
God's only Begotten Son
For she is
and will always be
something much greater
then she will ever see

Short lines strong rhymes with a pouring forth in single stanza - something to appreciate here. Well done.

This is the longest love letter to a girl, it appears to me.
