Sonnet 1
#2 of Ramblings
Within this piece I pronounce 'de-si-re' like 'des-are'. This is my first sonnet ever. It fits the meter. Fight me.
In night, such longing times once warmed with lust
Those hours in which I once would wish you near
This cold, it does betray my absent trust
for in your public presence I know fear
Your blade, so cruel, these wounds unseen inside
So thus it is I should not yield to touch
Your ill visage my sight cannot abide
for so to do have I decreed too much
And yet still do upon desire you tug
So false it is, in small amounts, I cringe
You draw me in, this pain it's like a drug
Rough hands, please stay; your ghost, a used syringe
We met, it seems, from broken mirrors past
With pain I ask, these words should be our last
