A Letter to My Former Lover

• Artist: Kinky_Corruption
• Description: I wrote this sonnet for my AP English Literature class and thought it was pretty spiffy, so tell me what you think. Pretty much, it's about a man who has grown tired of his immature lover and decides to end things in the only way he felt she deserved. A letter on the bed. Ouch, right?

My love for you is empty
Caged within a heart gone cold
Your smile once enlivened me
Now I just grow old

These games I endured
Of your seductive ploy
Such a child you are
I no longer wish to be your toy

My patience wears thin
Each time your word is said
Telling how you love me
How you wish me dead

You read this letter
Weeping upon your bed
Know you were only worth this paper
Not my voice instead
