Sonnet 1

Posted Nov 30, 2017 · 14 lines · 8 critiques

Careful was I when I took my way
The incident which brought me to his eye
The eyes that leads to deceit of destruction,
The groan of an innocent heart,
That to warning she ignored.
My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me,
The night of my pleasure.
The pleasure night hath he turned into fear unto me.
For valve was lost.
The error of the night, the pleasure
That ends with the night
For crime was it to love.
Think of thou offspring yet to come my friend,
And let your child says, false life you lived.
