When I the clouds of night behold, the world Of shame and evil melts away; the dark Takes hold and leads away the world of old, Replacing life so dull with worlds of stark Contrast and beauty bright to kill the great Depressions I may feel within my heart, And bring about the change that I await, The change to joy, from tears in all my parts. In all of this, the world of simple men Forgotten in an instant, lands that might Just one day be come flash and then they end As light of day assaults th'horizon bright. But oh that those strange lands all stand inside My mind is joy in which my self resides. "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh" |

Wonderful sonnet! Form is perfect, of course, and the poem itself is also excellent! There is nothing like going to those wonderful places that you create in your mind, is there? Thanks for sharing.  "Men judge generally more by the eye than by the hand, for everyone can see and few can feel."-Machiavelli |

Sonnets scare me...  I liked this one though....they aren't my favorite form, but you did a wonderful job!  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
