Petrarchan Sonnet II

by Cory Bogner {Pisces} - Not entered

There, of course, is nothing I could do,
She has left and is not coming back.
Patience for the situation is what was at lack.
I wish there was some way to change her view,
Some way I wish we could start anew.
But, again, I can't change the fact
That my heart was treated to this torturous rack.
I knew this day I would rue.

I loved her so much, she was everything to me; 
I don't want to go on but I must.
But what am I to do now?
There is a hole where my heart used to be
And there is nothing now I can trust.
It is time, I guess, to take my final bow.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this after my fiance left me.  I had a tremendous
feeling of emptiness afterwards, so I tried to release it 
with my pen.
