She took away my heart long ago
Leaving me a heartless body
Seduce me and spend the night
Taste the sinful pleasure
Enjoy it while it last
But brace your heart
Ain't gonna
Fall to
You.

Nonet Poem Rules

The nonet poetic form is simple. It’s a 9-line poem that has 9 syllables in the first line, 8 syllables in the second line, 7 syllables in the third line, and continues to count down to one syllable in the final (ninth) line.

I couldn’t find an origin, but I did learn that the word nonet is used for a group of 9 performers or instruments. So I’m assuming this is one of those poetic forms inspired by music.
