Discovery Through You

Discovery Through You

A Poem by maddie

I am discovering myself through you
My heart is learning her rhythm
My soul is learning her vision
You have given my breath a new meaning

I am discovering love though you 
The gleam of your eyes is my foundation
They are steady, and never lost in translation
Proof that we are one

I am discovering pain through you 
An unfamiliar drug 
The kind that is swept under the rug
Remembered only in late night drunken phone calls

I am learning to cry through you
Learning not to fear emotion
Because it is a beautiful commotion
Rather than a sign of weakness

I don't tend to rhyme a lot, but thought I would give it a try. What do you think of the rhyme pattern? Does it feel forced?
