Winged Warrior Poet Sonnet

Listen to poem:

The Never Ending Now

Upon a breathless moment in time,
A thousand hells do exist;
Within a paralyzed paradigm
A love is lost in the mist.

Where hearts are broken forever,
Amidst the never ending now;
As anguished sorrows sever
And tears break the bough.

A twinkling second of love lost,
Like mirages melting of mind;
A neglected nuance in frost
Caged memories are confined.

In an instant love is crushed,
And a lonely moment hushed.

Beata Agustin June 15, 2024 at 5:57 AM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Andrea Dietrich December 29, 2022 at 12:08 AM A very belated congrats to one who passed and whose poetry I hope remains here always.

I Am Anaya July 13, 2022 at 4:18 PM "When you walk into the room, I stand on shaky ground" comes to mind... but when you walked out--the grounds of hell have shaken me. Levels of hell I hold suppressed. Touching

Sam Kauffman August 4, 2020 at 9:30 PM WW congratulations! This sonnet is filled with breathtaking images and poetic expression - "paralyzed paradigm," "mirages melting," "never ending now" and heartbreaking emotion. Well done!

Sigrid Ermine August 4, 2020 at 4:34 PM Spot on verse. Very cleverly devised. I think the alliteration is fitting.

Jenna Logan July 19, 2020 at 7:12 AM Winged Warrior, I really like the premise of your skillfully written Sonnet. No need for alliteration when a poet writes of lost love, in fact it's best when not overdone.
