Chey has a spectacular aura about
Poetry. Sonnet. Iambic Pentameter. Is this any good? Help, please.?

I have this English project due this upcoming Monday. And I have a Sonnet due(Iambic pentameter, 10 syllables per line, 14 lines total). Problem is... I have no clue if it's in IAMBIC PENTAMETER form-wise. And if this poem is any good? After answering that question. Do you mind telling me what you think the poem is about? Love or Loss? Thank you, I really appreciate it!


Wandering in this love that can't exist.
Embracing a moment that lasted short.
My tortured heart, so foolish; can't resist,
For I've done nothing wrong but give my heart.
The truth, desire my lifelong trials.
Hidden, falling we're slipping away
And for I've found love is only vile.
And for the time we've wasted we shall pay.
The haunted feelings still left in my thoughts,
These things I yearn for, I no longer want.
Even in this small quiet room I'm lost,
Suffering in such pain, I am not wrong.
For human frailaties, blind us away
And forever is never what they say.
Oh and if there is any errors. Point them out. And... I forgot to add. I don't have a title for it... yet. Unless you guys want to help me think up one. =]

emilyann has a spectacular aura about
The only line I couldn't pronounce with ten syllables was Line 5. Other than that I think it is in iambic pentameter. I like the poem, I think it is about loss. Iambic pentameter just means there is ten syllables per line and every other syllable is accented.
