Curtains of Your Heart

Grieving an emotional bind Curtain hung to guard heart and mind Fraught with sadness, loss and pure blind With pain of a loved one combined Cruel effects on God's temple Sleeplessness and absence ample Of hunger, broken-heart angel Flood-gate unleash in its chapel Feelings of hopeless hopelessness Deep loneliness and worthlessness Emptiness leaving sluggishness Withdrawn in complete hollowness Veil of the heart volume apiece Set the Spirit to life and peace 12/22/2020 Curtains Of Your Heart Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Chantelle Anne Cooke

I really don't know the sonnet form to well, but I thought the same way. The only difference is that it is an 8 syllable count with a AAAA BBBB CCCC DD. I thought a sonnet had a 10 syllable with a different rhyme. Thank you for reading.. Hugs dear friend
