Sobs in the Night - a Sonnet (hopefully)
My first attempt at a sonnet. If I got it right it should be in the form of an English (not Italian) sonnet. If I got it wrong, blame Milton, I copied his form.
I see you in the light.
You turn your head.
I turn the other way instead.
I can not fight.
Why can’t I do what feels so right?
Oh, how I wish to kiss your head.
My body burns with embers red.
I wish for you to never leave my sight.
Your lips sear my flesh,
But in the end I turn too slow.
The wound so fresh,
My dread begins to flow.
This damned crop to thresh.
I can not bear to watch you go.
I see you in the light.
You turn your head.
I turn the other way instead.
I can not fight.
Why can’t I do what feels so right?
Oh, how I wish to kiss your head.
My body burns with embers red.
I wish for you to never leave my sight.
Your lips sear my flesh,
But in the end I turn too slow.
The wound so fresh,
My dread begins to flow.
This damned crop to thresh.
I can not bear to watch you go.
