Eyes that pierce through veils, hide yourself from me
Darker than night, hotter than ash, it’s true
Draw me not into murky depths, spare me
Toss me high, nearing sky, blacker than blue
Crimson drips, ebony drops, drip, drop, drip
Delete me from the landscape, go and try
Chilly icicles kissed red cherry lips
Give me wings, tear me into pieces, fly
Free cells hover above, this is my home
Fall, be free, die who I was, live deceased
Flee, wander, be like the beasts, free to roam
No, stay, live as none, safe, seared, them appeased
Close the book, the story is over now
Pulled from the stage, rest, take one final bow

A piece i wrote for my creative writing class. A sonnet in iambic pentameter. Basically a Shakespearean styled piece.
