Tonight's Poet Corner: Sonnet Solstice #367

I Never Tried by Belinda Roddie I never tried to hurt you, but here you stand, tears descending from your weary eyes like dampened stars escaping from the blue canvas and finding home away from skies. We painted ev'ry dream together; now I see the corners fading, losing hue, the shadows collecting around the flow'rs that soaked in turpentine. Our calm debut was met with cool and solemn silence. We once thought our art epitomized our love, and years later, the arguments won't cease, not even when the neighbors from above scream for us both to stop. I make you cry and ought to choke on my bright oils and die.
