Captured in Momentum (An Italian Sonnet)

She watched the evening wane to brilliant sunset
standing naked baring all her soul to sing
allowing songs reflecting in the sun's sting
in persuade of heartache near to not forget.
Though her hearts of loves and losses move regret
there are those who bend her soul to soar on wing
gilded care hears tender voices echoing,
painting her upon horizon's silhouette.

If by chance the sunset begs for you to stop,
watch her as she glows to finish from her start;
her tears captured in momentum while she cries,
a core forever printed on this backdrop.
Viewed as tender upon painting of this heart,
unclothed for all who know to view the inside.

An Italian sonnet is composed of an octave,
rhyming abbaabba, and a sestet, rhyming
cdecde or cdcdcd, or in some variant
pattern, but with no closing couplet.

Usually, English and Italian Sonnets
have 10 syllables per line, but
Italian Sonnets can also have
11 syllables per line.

Individuality
a good poem, soft yet powerful imagery, the heart sets sail as nature moves along its course of time.
