Fearing a little more each days passing,
Life drains from my withered heart as we speak.
Soft caresses to be everlasting,
Desire such as this most truly unique.
Warmth of sweet lips upon mine hungered for,
Realized as Stygian darkness unfurled.
Embraces needed as a love harbor,
To anchor my spirit to this wide world.
Mistakes shall no longer be dwelled upon,
All that is petty disappears from sight,
Cleansed in paradise through the early dawn.
For you see I have accomplished true light.
Enlightened in the Elysian fields,
My soul's unrest shall eternally yield.Timothy Michael DiVito c1993
I have been writing poetry for 44 years. I began writing poetry when I was 15 years old and to this date I have written over 16,000 poems. I have had poems published in The San Fernando Journal, The Rag Mag, WYRD, The Cultural Reverence(e-magazine) and in Kiiroo(e-magazine), Mobius and the World Peace Anthology. I have over 1000 poems published in all. I also have a poetry page on Wix.com entitled anemotionaljourney.com. I also have written a Science Fiction/Fantasy novel entitled "The Blue Sphere" and I am currently working on two other books at the present time. One is entitled "The Angel and the Witches and the other is "Once Upon A Halloween"

People don’t seem to like sonnets as much as free verse. Thanks again my friend. 🙂

You are most welcome
I think they are great. I can’t do them so greatly admire those who can.
It’s strange how preferences change so much
