Sonnet XI

by Mr M   Jul 22, 2007


Poor dreams that are never dreamt nor breathed to
life; never heard nor laid to love. Poor sighs
of highest points of highest life never
sighed nor touched upon placation's sound.

Poor words that never formed upon their lips
nor emanates their thoughts among the stars
of night; poor eyes that never cried at dreams
which sparkled within their perfect flawless right.

Poor hope now spinning within our hatred's time,
bearing no clue to what it was created for.
Poor trust all charred on coals of discontent;

poor will that seeks its rise with fists against
this purging. Poor worldly calamity;
yet despite all this, all our love remains.

* With very special thanks to diana, debbylyn, sluvious, Cindy and Twisted Heart for their help. :)
