Hail

Hail, hail, fair prince from my broken dreams

I have long been waiting to see your face

Do not despair, all is not as it seems

Destiny has taken you to this place

Look upon me, do you not remember?

Oh, how I promised myself I wouldn't cry...

The smiles, the laughter of a lost September

Fleeting memories that have passed us by

What has happened here?  To us?  To this land

Time has swallowed up everything whole

But alas, that aside; come, take my hand

I won't let you accept this fate alone

Side by side, heart by heart, we stand this night

We face our fear, the demons of black light.

Author's Note

Sonnets. Love 'em.<3 This one has a fantasy touch. Hope you all like it. (This may or may not be inspired by The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time)

Now see... this is the way a woman should speak...if they are wishing to woo the heart of a poet...sigh... An awesome flow of ink you crafted here. It is penned with a smooth tempo and reads with a time tested elegance that makes it memorable.

Fantastic Poetic Skill!

I like this! :) I enjoy reading sonnets too, I'm just not so good writing them. c: Anyway, I like the analogy that "Time has swallowed everything whole."
Good job :)

Some lovely lines, I really liked the last one for instance. A highly readable piece, with a language that could not disappoint.

I don't get what sonnets are...But I do get that I like this poem, sonnet or whatever it is... :)

So amazing. To me this is about finding love, and in finding love we become strong enough to face our fears. Defenately going into favorites!!!!:)
