Sonnet 16

Do please unlock me from loves ball and chain My heart has never held such hurt before My eyes are clouds that often release rain And thunder echoes from my lungs a roar I slip in sorrow sinking in her sea Breathing the blue and error of her ways Stranded in strife with salted eyes to see Myself marveled to mourn inside her maze Perhaps by chance she'll let this caged bird fly Above the low ruins of captive years Maybe my face would show another sky With eyes bright as the sun to dry the tears Today I'll draw my life a better way With blue horizons over what was grey
