    `Beyond The Shadows` {Terza Rima}

    Pure sorrow looming as a brawny cloud,
    Beneath skin crawling hints of resignation.
    Within this heart an enemy avowed.

    Time himself sighs in a quiet cessation,
    While shaking, I lose grip of the current day.
    Sight drowns in soul-filled, watery vibrations,

    Night swallows better judgment with foreplay.
    Limbs cower as nerves twitch without pause,
    I hold my breath to keep loud wails at bay.

    Upon the rim of vision forms my very flaws,
    A single orb of reverie bestowing ---
    Forgiveness written in a legit clause:

    Today's will and Tomorrow's imbued knowing,
    It's the salt that wakes you up glowing.

    Terza rima is a three-line stanza using chain rhyme in the pattern a-b-a, b-c-b, c-d-c, d-e-d. There is no limit to the number of lines, but poems or sections of poems written in terza rima end with either a single line or couplet repeating the rhyme of the middle line of the final tercet. The two possible endings for the example above are d-e-d, e or d-e-d, e-e. There is no set rhythm for terza rima, but in English, iambic pentameters are generally preferred....
