Sonnet

Sometimes there are things that you can't control,
Everyone knows that night will turn to day,
No matter what you say the waves will roll,
No one asks why it just works out that way,
My love for you is like the sky at night,
Nothing at all can ever make it fade,
It glistens and twinkles it feels riht,
It's deep and dark but I am not afraid,
Scream Hallelujah beneath broken skies,
Love does not come with a gaurentee,
It leaves you with only hows and with whys,
I'll love you even if you don't love me,
This thing called love is oh so strange,
But one thing I know: my feelings won't change.

Does the strict sonnet form distract from the emotions?

    we swear undying devotion to another in a temporal place in time, and fate moves the hands of sweet flesh away, as the clock ticks on, but can one ever truly erase such love, I think not, it is a vibrant part of our souls, until our soul parts. lovely wri

    Beautiful poem. I agree with brad the bard, the rhyme is quite amazing but the meter is a little jerky. Great work though.

    A beautiful little sonnet. I really enjoyed reading it. The rhyme is effortlessly done, though the meter is a bit jerky. I especially love the line

    "Scream Hallelujah beneath broken skies,"

    Lovely paradoxal sound to it.

    Wow that's just what I've been feeling these past few days... and I've told him I'll love him even if he doesn't return the feelings... you've captured it with great imagery... comparing it to the sky... the thing that holds great wonder... great job and good luck!
