Sonnet for the unjustly slain

  Are you vengeful tonight?
  Will you come back tonight?
  Are you enraged because I sliced you apart?
  Does your unliving consciousness stray
  To that bright summer day
  When I killed you and carved out your heart?
  
  Are the chairs in your parlour
  Still bloodied and stained?
  Have you crawled from your grave site
  To haunt me again?
  
  Now my heart's filled with fear
  For these sounds which I hear
  Make me think that
  You've come back tonight

  Ref:
  The English or Shakespearean sonnet, developed first by Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey (1517-1547), consists of three quatrains and a couplet--that is, it rhymes abab cdcd efef gg.

  I find the sonnet to be a very strict form, not least because of its rhyme scheme but also due to the use of the iambic pentameter.
  
  Regardless, it's a good effort. Very creepy!

  reminds me of Edgar Allan Poe's story, "The Tell-tale Heart".
