Sonnet: a Poignant Verse

It's all the way in the ignorant dark
I have my small steps put forth in my stride
As some light visible beyond blinds arc
Favoring the fear of strife, lest I hide
As many a mind have asked me to cease
For I leave them mine defiant deaf hear
To carve my concepts yet nothing to freeze
Mine spirits arousal lest I do fear.
Who knew when; what exactly excites me…
What agonizes …what inspires truly? 
If ever I know, I would have conveyed thee…
For I dwell in doubt … I swear solemnly.
You''d have tried your hand on a poignant verse
If you have known what lie in thine deep tears.
