The Deepest Depths of Epic Pain

The Deepest Depths Of Epic Pain The scars of life unveil the weight of lies, lest it be the torment of moral sin, wherein the guiltless suffer wounds and cries of love’s deceit as heartless notions win. The evil whims of wicked fancy shows no mercy for those crossed by hands of fate when magic dreams are cast by darkened clouds which turns the morbid sorrow into hate. In rage of fervor, passion's zeal is lost, oft destroyed by life's dire tribulations, as sunning rays vacates dawn's gleaming frost human frailties blind truth's revelations. Within hope destroyed and life's darkest stain remains the deepest depths of epic pain. 3-14- 2017 T.J Grén & Robert Lindley First 8 verses by Teppo Gren, final 6 verses by Robert J. Lindley Note: Has been an honor and great pleasure for me to co-write this sonnet with my very talented friend, T.J Grén. Thanks for the invitation my friend..
