Dirt Tear Garden

I cry dirt tears for all the ones who grieve at night
Chained and locked up, in cold dark rooms.
Hearing no other tune than that of their parent’s fight,
For a single day of peace is all their heart swoons.
It is from my eye that these dirt tears fall
To all the little children who fear the sound of footsteps
Worried of being thrown against the wall,
They don’t understand why their life fell down these steps.
It is dirt tears that my eyes do spill
For all the young, weak and damaged girls and boys
Who are traumatized against their will.
I can hear their hearts, though they make not a noise.
So I will cry a dirt tear in hopes, that soon
A miracle succeeds and a flower will bloom.

A bit of work needed in terms of the complete structure of a sonnet, but otherwise I enjoyed the subject matter. You held my attention with your imagery and extended metaphors, which you seem to have a skill with. Your ending was rather enjoyable as well. It was a great way to cap off your first stab at a sonnet. If anything though, there are a few more rules to a sonnet that you may have to look up on your next foray. Nevertheless, excellent stuff : ) |
