In the desolate valley of ashes,
Where my morose rotting corpse was once laid,
Along the mortal peril and lashes,
To once cheer was present that now has fade.

I knew him within his darkest secrets,
Gallant bravery and grandiloquence;
Along women's ghastly hearts leaving frets,
Reaping none but wonder for his essence.

I yearn for your powerful connection,
Including shunning all things pernicious.
I only long for your dear affection,
For, I've loved you whilst being cautious.

You might have thought I am a deceiver,
Luring your dear heart to a false lover.
This is my very first sonnet. Supposedly, sonnets are meant to be written cheerfully with dramatic romantic aura but I can't seem to express myself into something blissful. Hope this one is nice enough. :)

In a place where everything is uncertain,
People change faces behind a closed theater curtain,
To swindle others' rights just for a game of tease,
So they come off with masks obscuring true identities.

Everyone has complex sheets of guises,
To shield one's self from inherent vices.
Better be a human without magnificent grandeur,
Rather be someone whose existence no man can endure.

Lest not give trust to neither a friend nor a foe,
Before you end up listening to yourself about a woe.
But how can we differ one from the other?,
If everywhere deceit has now slather.

Most are gullible enough to be a victim of a crime,
From someone deceiving others just for a waste of time.
The culprit continuously being incredulously exuberant,
Whilst those saw the crime act exceedingly nonchalant.

Shame that we are all appalling creatures with hidden pulchritude,
Behind every lie and guise in sinful sanctitude.
Despite attempts to conceal things due to disenchantment,
None can succeed for human desire never has its true contentment.

Why let a soul be parted from the other?,
If one day, they'll need to find each other.
Oh why put up a game of chase?,
If sooner or later, it will only bring a feel for haste.

How cruel this world of ours!,
Letting us suffer for years, months, days and hours.
How can we discern our existence,
If our other half has its absence?

I beg the deities' pardon,
For being anxious for a rational reason.
I only want my dear love's caress,
For in his arms, I want to rest.

Oh how I deeply yearn for the parted connection!,
Of the reincarnated soul that once gave me affection and affliction.
Oh how desolating can this situation be!,
Waiting and coveting for someone I have yet to see.
This is not one of my best works but I hope you like it.

In a world where everything is wicked and censorious,
She looked at the world as if it was vibrant and mellifluous.
Her soul was filled with pure cheer and serenity,
Just like the feeling you have while drinking a cup of tea.

I saw how she became the woman in the corner,
The one whose soul continuously screams louder and louder.
I remember how her eyes went from lively to bleak and dreary.
Since that day you tore her soul apart and left her crying and weary.

Both of you cherished one another,
Like two young love birds of the same feather.
But one day, you abandoned her without any words of explanation.
Leaving her thinking if everything was just a piece of a playful illusion.
                                              
       As days passed by,she became more lifeless and devastated.        
That even I, saw that her past self was already completely annihilated.
She used to be the face of anything related to perennial bliss,
But now she's the living symbol of never ceasing abyss.

Others may say, that she became nothing but a waste of space;
A petty appalling little thing that should not be given a simple gaze.
But I beg to differ, for I think she was an admirable woman,
Who saw the best in the world while no one can.

The light in her eyes might have faded away,
Along with her caring heart whose beats went astray.
She will still be the woman with a smile like no other.
Despite her drastic transformation as the woman in the corner.

You're a myth, a product of a playful imagination,
A beauty with no trace of imperfection.
You are an angel, disguised as a human sent from above.
Within your presence, I never felt like a flightless dove.

Your character is filled with gallant bravery,
And while in your arms, I feel serenity.
You are magnificent in every single way,
Without you in this world, I have no reasons to stay.

Despite your admirable grandiloquence,
You noticed me when the world was oblivious to my absence.
You ended my lamentations when my world seems blue,
And made it livelier along with numerous vibrant hues.

You are my knight in shining armor,
The love of my life forevermore.
You are my protector, my heart's fervor.
For you are an angel and I'm only human, nothing more.

In this world full of hurt and pain,
You're the one who helped me through the rain.
Slowly as time passed by, a love like a blooming rose began.
No one knew how or why, but to me you're like no other man.
For you are my angel and I, your human.
