Roy Pett Poet Sonnet

Regretfulness

strings of my heart pulled tight close to fracture 
seduced, captivated thoughts, memories 
unable to control hearts contracture 
start to examine minds directories, 

regrets flowing through souls blocked arteries 
underestimated your great power
her loveable virtues abilities 
didn't stop my evil need to deflower,

darkness falls yet energises resolve
to prove intentions was benevolent 
demonstrate needs for our love to evolve
convince my actions weren't malevolent 

now I crave your undying forgiveness 
without you, life's pitiful, no richness.
