Opening my Soul
Opening my soul to you
Trusting the world to see.
Releasing the strings, go on through
With the power of persistence, for you to see me.
Chasing all of my broken shadows,
Exploiting all of my mortal fears,
Searching for loving meadows
With my heart still bleeding tears.
Believing like an infant child
That you are trustful
Not the type who lied,
About something so beautiful
But like always it’s not me
The one you see.

Very good for a 1st. try. I am very impressed. He was a fool for letting you slip away.... His loss ONLY!

the sonnet was born to express such love...you have captured the true feeling of a sonnet.  I've found them to be quite a challenge but your words seem to flow with great ease.  my favorite lines, "with the power of persistence for you to see me"  but  "like always, it's not me, the one you see"

wow what a wonderful sonnet very well described i completey can relate to what you feel.

I've snuck into the archives hun and found this heartfelt piece. I know this feeling--when doubt and loss bully a person until they don't know what was even real or imagined anymore. The search for "loving meadows" goes on and because this poem was written in 2006 I'm going to joke with you about it. Dear one, let's hope our "loving meadows" isn't a bloody retirement home. =))

what a beautiful line

Comment By: FreeIlze on July 18, 2006 03:44:32 PM Report
Very powerful and wonderful one! Very well written.
We are too afraid to let out true emtions to be seen, and in nowadays too much hiding our real selves inside.
I believe it is better to love and perhaps have your heart broken, than to don't know what love really is.
Namaste!

Everything's better with a good sonnet on it..This is a fine one..What's that spear shakin' palooka have that you don't have, outside of a plot of ground, I mean...len

This piece of writing is one of the most splendid pieces of pure love and devotion towards one's lover...I am impressed by your sublime feelings for your beloved!!!  Carry one sweet lady, carry on....!!
Comment By: FreeEagle Eye on June 2, 2006 08:46:42 AM Report
Where would love be if we didn't belive in it like an infant child?

Perhaps it is about finding the one who shares our eyes...

thought this was a very nice write!
