This is another try at a rhyming poem with deeper thought. I wrote this at first as a stream of consciousness, but turned it into a poem. I am focusing on formatting.
Do not trust me with a secret
That you know I cannot keep
Do not let me change your future
Just by something that I see
Do not try to make me smile
When it is raining out the window
Do not attempt to make me laugh
With an animal stuffed pillow
Do not hold onto me forever
Because sometimes I must fall
Do not compliment me on my height
For I know I am not tall
Do not believe that I could want you
More than any of my friends
Do not read me a long story
That doesn't really have an end
Do not explain what is not real
For then who is the fool
Do not urge me to change
Because what I do isn't cool
Do not make me solve a problem
Because I might make a mistake
Do not lend me out your heart
Unless you want mine to break
