All prospects of hope are fading fast.
This hole in my soul is gaping wide,
A glaring reminder of my troubling past.

Sleep provides me no respite,
No shelter from the pain I feel.
I want to be free from this cursed sight,
From sorrow that feels all too real.

Imprisoned in darkness’ loving embrace,
No light shines from the approaching dawn.
The problems I feel, I don’t wish to face.
A runaway train to hell I’m on.

I'm tired of living a life I hate.
Now for the end I patiently wait. [comments] => 7 [counter] => 247 [topic] => 13 [informant] => MrWrite [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Sonnet #4

Topic: DarkPoetry

Sadness welling up inside,
All prospects of hope are fading fast.
This hole in my soul is gaping wide,
A glaring reminder of my troubling past.

Sleep provides me no respite,
No shelter from the pain I feel.
I want to be free from this cursed sight,
From sorrow that feels all too real.

Imprisoned in darkness’ loving embrace,
No light shines from the approaching dawn.
The problems I feel, I don’t wish to face.
A runaway train to hell I’m on.

I'm tired of living a life I hate.
Now for the end I patiently wait.

Well, I personally think it's good.

I can guess that people can relate to it a lot, too.

I like how it flowed and how it stuck together so well.

Good write,
Phil xx

I think this is good. This is the first poem I have read by you and i think you are very talented.

I think you have lost your dream or so your poem states due to sadness. I hope you get it back. Don't wait for death live life to the full!

This is my frst time reading you work as well..

Great dicipline..a true sonnet indeed-

Trim a word here and there..and this would
be beyond a 5 for me-

Though I thouroughly enjoyed it as it is-
..very well written
