A/N: This the first piece of poetry I ever wrote. Even though it is different from what I write now, I appreciate where I began, and how much I grown as a writer and an individual since this piece. I hope you enjoy.
Shakespearean Sonnet
Blackness, emptiness, surrounds my being
Burning, bleeding only on the inside
I really don't know the mean
There will be nowhere safe for my soul to abide
I don't like this monster I've become
My life draining before their eyes
My heart beating like a drum
Pain, agony no matter how long I look to the skies
Watching, waiting for not to be numb
Dizzy from this pain
It seems like in the only one
No happiness to be gained
I look in that mirror, no reflection
All I realize now is, this rejection.
