SHE WAS ALONE
The house was silent
time passed slowly.
she was alone.
There was no escape
winds raged outside
the house was silent.
The scars she bore
were deep and wide
time passed slowly.
His hurtful words
had caused the wounds
she was alone.
Cascade, a form created by Udit Bhatia. The form does not have any rhyme scheme; therefore, the layout is simple. Say the first verse has three lines. Line one of verse one becomes the last line of verse two. To follow in suit, the second line of verse one becomes the last line of verse three. The third line of verse one now becomes the last line of verse four, the last stanza of the poem.
