Avoiding the blazing sphere
Is my personal achievement
Scanning for endless shadow
Results of my painful bereavement

Someone throw a cradling embrace
A traitorous encounter is what I fear
The slightest gap I face besiegement
Pale and shaking I'll sneer

Gripping Lady Shade with believment
Drain me like the blackest widow
Wrap me up in your blinding lace
Engrossed pupils you bestow

Darkest depths I'll plunge below
Scurry me off to a safer place
Lest my tender flesh sear
From your waves of disgrace
An attempt at something more challenging. I normally incorporate a fairly basic rhyme scheme if any in my works. So I thought I would change things with this one. I had a far more complex version that had 7 different rhyming pairs that were evenly attached to the 4-5 line stanzas and my head nearly exploded once I got to the third stanza. A bit more simple to digest was 4on4 with a different rhyming pair per stanza. Simple enough, the real challenge in the end was to find 3 other words that rhyme with achievement. ~_~

Here is how the number scheme went if you are having some difficulty understanding (The numbers have words that rhyme on the last word in each line)
