Once more, for English class. My first attempt at a Petrarchan sonnet. |
| A simple thought turned into wanderlust, The labyrinth of dreams turned cruel and twisted. Eyes glazed like a mirror- slightly misted. An old life left behind, covered in dust. That hollow chest makes you seem like a toy. The constant tin soldier who melted down Still gave his heart to the girl in a gown- Yet your sickly heart has never felt joy. Always wanting for more places and things Never would you stop for a loving hand- Your gaze only halts at the crop of the cream. I hope you one day find the will to sing, May not one single day ever feel bland. May you shake the dust whenever you dream. |
