I hear a soft discord
A thrumming, humming noise
Could this be some reward?
If so, I should rejoice!
I've waited long enough,
My heart must learn this beat
And now it's obvious
No feeling can compete.
This poem lacks allure
I know that it is true
But you, I so adore
And now I will break through.
Do you agree with me?
I guess that we shall see.
This was the first sonnet I ever wrote, for a poetry class. I realized in the second line that I hated it, and I don't do well with guidelines. I finished it, basically making fun of myself throughout. Ironically, my professor was impressed.
