My Two Line Prayer

I always tried to be the solid rock,
the sponge absorbing tears of others pain.
The safety of a ship moored at its’ dock,
receiving all the blows of hurt and bane.
I thrive on giving all my heart can spare,
my shoulder is an open place to rest.
I lend an ear whenever life’s unfair,
I give my all; at least I try my best.
There comes a time when even I must cry.
I turn around and there’s no place to go,
there is no one that can identify,
with all the hurt and all the things I know.
       So hear my prayer Almighty God above,
       send me an angel that can spare some love.

    this is a beutiful sonnet with lovely words, I absoultly love how you eneded this one, the lfow is wonderful. When I try to write sonnets as most they tend to come out choppy, yet yours just flow and follow through so sweetly,

    It hurts when you give everything but there is no one there to help you when you stumble. But God is always there for us wherever we are.
    This is a very emotional poem, because it states the simple truth.

    I can really relate to this poem... I've been feeling pretty down myself. This was very inspiring, and it doesn't make me feel lonely anymore.

    I'm not an angel and I know I have my problems, but if you ever need someone, I'll be here, even if it's only to listen or for a hug
    Another beautiful sonnet...

    Love

    You continue to improve at the task of sonnet-writing, Sis. You are getting closer and closer to being able simply to say what you have to say. The traces of awkwardness in this one are hardly noticeable, and not worth mentioning specifically, the technique shows good knowledge of the form. Keep it up.

    Beautiful write, Amera. This makes me think of how I feel about life sometimes. I have always put up a strong front at times even when I've felt at my worst and felt like crying. I liked the ending the best. The part of the angel seemed like it could be taken two different ways, such as either a person who is like an angel that a person can meet in life, or like an angel of a God. Either way, there seemed to be a wish for hope in this piece. Thanks for sharing and best of luck in the contest.

    I have looked down, I think you have your angels and I am sure there are others. Angels or not, you write beautiful sonnets.

    What Lane said.... You have my shoulder whenever you want it. You have my hand whenever you need it. You have my heart whenever... I love you. This is so lovely and so "you".
