O' Sonnet O' Mine

by Jason Rainey   May 1, 2007


Taunting, daunting, little hauntings
Memories of whats past
Leaves me thinking about leaving
I could have made it last.

If I wanted to,
I could have fought it through,
And still only regret.

Without gratitude,
I never thought it through,
I still owe on that debt.

Shattered, scattered, little matter
Things that hold me back
Now I put my mind at ease
Forget that which I lack.

    Wow.
    I probably read this one 5 times and each time it just got better and better. I love the way you use your words, each line so simplistic and yet it still says so much.
    I also love the fact that I can relate to it.
    Very well written.
    5/5

    Okay.
    I read this poem like three times.
    It didn't really make sense to me.
    I was trying to understand
    How it would be in the love poetry section.
    I think it needs a clearer explanation.
    Or maybe I'm just really slow.
    Will you explain to me.
    I'll grade this on the wording
    On the format.
    And they're all fantastic.
    5/5?
