Fly- Modern Sonnet

                                    Fly

Her life but falsely secure safe was she

Beyond love and heartbreak confusion sets in

Unsure and forced to separate from thee

Struggles with none other than her own sin

 

she watched her devotion as it had sank

happiness is who she was not to be

Motion may waver as sky’s draw a blank

No more relate to the life she can’t see

            

The clarity of the truth remains fate

her love with but two will end without one 

Today she lives as tomorrow has weight

Her heart quiver and shake has yet begun

 

A sudden rush but then the stars align

How can I relate to one that’s not mine?

    3. Forbidden love triangle
    4. How someone can’t be with the person they love
    5. It made me feel depressed
    6. “Her life but falsely secure safe was she”
    7. I was imagining a fairy flying around
    8. “Motion may waver as sky’s draw a blank”
    9. Yes at the end she understands that she needs to be with who she loves
    10. “A sudden rush when the stars align, how can I relate to one that’s not mine”
    -I like this ending line because it has a deeper meaning that the fate she thought was hers is not actually belonging to her its someone else’s

    3. A Forbidden love triangle between three people
    4. The irony of not being able to be with the person you love
    5. It made me feel restricted and depressed
    6. “She watched her devotion as it had sank”
    7. I imagined two lovers that weren’t meant to be because one was super rich and one was super poor
    8. “Motion may waver as sky’s draw a blank”
    9. She realizes in the end that she has to choose one from the other two in the triangle
    10. “Today she lives as tomorrow has weight” This line has so much meaning because I think what she’s trying to say is everyday it gets harder the more she thinks about cutting one of these lovers off.
