Keeping Vigil

Missing image
    I centralize with evil premonition,
    The limited resource, not loving them
    For dreams prepare me not for violation,
    An innocence that many may condemn.

    It now assures me many woman do,
    Intrigue a man, ideas as being loose
    But purity confines this an excuse,
    Or could these needs be verily untrue?

    The sweet lament from visuals I portray,
    Is having found the ugliness inside,
    What worth am I if pity I provide?
    Can nothing do, provide me night and day.

    Wasted time is spent on writing verse,
    Aimless years are shortening one's life
    I am prepared, to be that perfect wife,
    Unfortunately by virtue, it's a curse.

    I feel unloved, but glady I shall give,
    The honour to a gentleman who can
    Maintain the loyalty as it began
    But trust is more an invite to forgive.

    Fear the dragon's teeth to all extent
    Has bitten off the positive domain,
    Of having made exception being plain,
    When holier than thou is my content.

    Nice job! The choice of words you used were awesome, and the emotion in this piece was evident. I especially loved this line:

    Wasted time is spent on writing verse,
    Aimless years are shortening one's life
    I am prepared, to be that perfect wife,
    Unfortunately by virtue, it's a curse.

    The prompt truly represented your quote.

    Good luck and thanks for entering!

    This is quite interesting, the thoughts of woman written by a man, which you did very well.
    The rhymes are excellent, so much rhythm there.
    Very smooth, well written poem.

    The second last stanza, in a personal opinion, I would call her insane though

    Wonderful work Sir William
