Long lost is love, yet how I pine for him
Whose song could charm e’en Hades’ troubled heart.
I, heaven bound on some celestial whim,
Did him depart to mourn with naught but art.
How close we came to one another's arms
When one swift glance destroyed my fragile hope;
Resigned me to the dead in clinging swarms,
Despair of which comes not in living scope.
And so I wait for fate to run its race,
For three dark shades to break a slender thread.
The day yet comes when I shall see his face
And we together ghostly Fields may tread.
Though some may say this hope I ought to tame,
My heart thrives on’t, and so I show no shame.

So I know dA has some kind of policy against posting things that were homework assignments, what am I supposed to do when I kind of like things that I've written for class??
Anyways... Studying Sonnets (of the Shakespearean variety) in ENG 123, and we had to write one (two, actually, but I used "Sonnet" for the first, because I am incredibly lazy...). I had nothing sonnet-worthy to write of a personal nature, but the myth of Orpheus and Euridyce has always been one of the most tragically beautiful stories of all time...So I wrote this from Euridyce's PoV. I kind of like it...it works for what it is, at any rate. |
