I dance, test fate, here with you.
One foot over a crumbling ledge,
will it all fall through?
Russian roulette murdered caution's thought
and I've fallen down temptations throat tonight.
I'm waltzing with all that death has wrought;
we're both caught running from the light.
Jump and test the strength of this noose's rope.
All we've got is testing fate.
We've reached the edge, there's no hope
unless we turn; we'll see what's fate...
Walk the edge, free fall against the grain.
It's not so much to do when you feel the pain. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 169 [topic] => 13 [informant] => waos [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Fate's Sonnet

Walking on a razor's edge
I dance, test fate, here with you.
One foot over a crumbling ledge,
will it all fall through?
Russian roulette murdered caution's thought
and I've fallen down temptations throat tonight.
I'm waltzing with all that death has wrought;
we're both caught running from the light.
Jump and test the strength of this noose's rope.
All we've got is testing fate.
We've reached the edge, there's no hope
unless we turn; we'll see what's fate...
Walk the edge, free fall against the grain.
It's not so much to do when you feel the pain.

i liked the theme of fate in this piece - i thought that this poem was to quite a high standard for a school piece - well done!

Ah sonnet's are hard to write... but you
excelled brilliantly with this poem. I liked the
"Russian roulette" part it was captivating and
chilling at the same time.
