Lukas Ficklin Poet Quatrain

Treachery

I cannot say if I will stay
I will not share my pure despair
I won’t reveal through this ordeal 
I do not care you’re unaware

I don’t believe I can relieve
I won’t explain the endless pain
You never thought you would get caught 
And now I’m strained to wax or wane

Reason A. Poteet May 18, 2016 at 8:08 PM This says much in a negative sort of way. Not really sure about preterition yet. Enjoyed this though and love the title. Congratulations, Lukas.

Lin Lane May 18, 2016 at 11:34 AM Great internal and ending rhyme, Lukas. A difficult feat but well worth the effort.

Constance La France April 29, 2016 at 11:10 PM Lukas, very good for the contest, best of luck, I am trying to learn iambic pentameter, oh my, there seems to be no rhythm in my head ~ Lukas Ficklin April 30, 2016 at 9:25 AM Thx my friend! I am learning the meters and beats myself but it's fun to play around with it. You certainly do have skills though... Amazing writes and contest wins!!
