Lost Hope

Lost in thought, deep in despair Knowing loneliness has no bound Eager to speak, quick to share Ready to fool and to confound Time moves memory remains still Thoughts linger of what could be Pain of lost hope does not heal Nor can any faith part the sea Love gives hope a new resting place Questions of what will come to pass Reason fights looking for any trace Longing grows like the blades of grass In the darkest hour, filled with solitude Where can one be found in the multitude

Wayland, feeling lost like this poem at times... I like the image of "no faith parting the ea"... now that is true feelings of despair... another brilliant sonnet from your side... PD

This was one of my first poems. Actually any sonnets I post are some of my first poems. I tried to use the sonnet to give myself some form, so that I could practice rhyme, but soon left for open or free verse.
