Alone, outcasted, I stand here, watching. |
| Inside the jaws of a dark, wet Thursday And the blood red light of a waning sun. The haze of rush hour, the skyline's grey. At the corner of Ash and Dusk, forgotten. All around, all alone, a crowd minus one. Ignorant eyes, not seeing eyes, surround. A ghost of existence, a glance from none. The hustle and bustle, naught but a sound. A rock in a stream, solid yet drowned In the swells and swirls of the passing night In their lives not mine, their souls, unbound, But me, tied heart, head, and soul, now a plight. But she, like me, life's weary outcast, And us together, accepted at last. --- We were supposed to create a sonnet with no verbs for school,except limited use of -ing -ed; so this was mine. Our prompt was an eye, hence the name. Please Review. Thanks! |
