Silver WInd Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Brides Sorrow Red rimmed her eyes for faded tears old cloth crinkles in spider webs her heart beats for each of her fears upon her face she wears the veil Her love will come nevermore day and night she collects the dust her cries heard across the sea shore upon her face she wears the veil And still her wedding dress is worn while the moths eat away the cloth her heart forever will be torn upon her face she wears the veil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lessthaninnocent Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Great, I've read something like this before it was based on a famous book, but to my shame I can't remember the book. I have to say I much prefer your poem, it's more mysterious. Love the repetition and word choice. Another great one . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver WInd Posted September 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 I think you may be thinking of Great Expextations, in which there is this old woman who had her heart broken and just sits in her wedding dress. Tennyson also did a poem in a simallar theme as this one. Thank you for your coments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
