In Vain
Author: godawful teen-angst poetry  PM
Shakespearean sonnet, for Black Rider (from xmas). I realized after posting that I had left out a stanza...so now, 4 months later, you get the final four lines. Enjoy. Original included.

In Vain
Venetian heart of glass you close to me
As with false smiles you open up your arms;
I blind my eyes, embrace uncertainty
Succumbing to the pleasure of your charms
No rose to me would ever smell as sweet
As dreams of you and I in love's embrace;
Yet when at last in passion our lips meet,
The taste is bitter, hollow as your grace
One day when the wisteria have fled
Perhaps you'll notice all the tears I've bled.
***
for Black Rider
(I'm fully aware this probably isn't what you wanted…but it's Christmas…maybe I'll be able to write something better later when I have more time.)
