Darkness

The night is dark, where can I turn for light.
Each path is strewn with boulders I can't see
The moon I love is hidden far from sight
I need a loving hand to steady me

For those who've faith in gods and other dreams
It's safe to stride ahead without a view
I cannot trust such vision in these steams
Where will I tread until I've sight of you

When all is safe and troubles cast aside
I know that I will see the way again
But I must swim against prevailing tide
And you must find a way to conquer pain

With love the darkest night will pass away
So I can see the path as clear as day

In a list

Please tell me what you think

    This is truly a wonderful sonnet, perfectly penned in decasyllable with wonderful rhyme and meter if read with an English accent. To my ear, "again" rhymes with "men". No one here says "again" like it rhymes with "pain". This is really a great sonnet barring your wierd accent.

    Love,
    Amera♥
