A late night poem:
She sits in perfect repose
a poem waiting to be composed
words woven with silken thread
fine yet not quite spoken
Constellations bright within her eyes
hinting at the prose she hides
in her gentle, shuttered soul, and why,
I wonder why, has she been left to bide her time
aching for her poem to be written

"Wow -- I love this poem. Great subject and you capture its elusiveness. I would slightly alter the ending: in her gentle, shuttered soul, I wonder why she has been left to bide her time aching for herself to be written." -

on A late night poem: from @Ray Whitaker
"The rhyme scheme works until the end… maybe a bit more work on that there? I would suggest you drop the second “why”, as the “I wonder” part connotates that. This would make it flow better, IMHO" -
