Oh, I'm begged such disaccordance, ol' chap. I really can't quite say what particular it is, but rather that it is particular. This is a compendium of literary accomplishments, and lowering my standard for the sole sake o' letting my audience be lazy is wrong, ol' chap.
I'd say, ol' chap, I believe you are quite mistaken.

Looking out, with my head supported by this scarlet wood, my hands tied, and a deep razor above my head, I do not fear death.
I look above to the aggravated buildings, leaning against one another for support, and below, to the beautiful court.
I close my eyes as the voice begins, stating my crimes, before at last looking into the crowds, gazing at the faces so desperate for anything to lessen the damage to their hearts, minds and souls.
Looking out, with my head supported by such scarlet wood, my hands tied, and a deep razor falling towards my neck, I do not fear death – I am innocent.

One summer’s eve so long ago,
That sitting here I do not know,
If what I’m here about to show,
Corresponds with my old vow.
Waving this and little more.
Lost happiness out at the faro,
Which wane like my closest sorrow,
Who I have the need to borrow,
Saving such things from the morrow;
Doing this within my bore.
Gazing out upon the main there,
Tasting salt within the sea*s air,
Waiting in this same old house where,
First I heard the news I here share,
Given to my heart so sore.
She, the love I had so long sought,
To me it was then and there taught,
Would not be with my love then bought.
That catch of the sea I had caught,
Would be memories of yore.
To me, the news was to be said,
Laying there within my cold bed,
The life that my love had so led,
Ended now! For she was then dead;
Her life but the things of lore.
At the altar in her white dress,
To me pledging her oath of yes,
For eternity and no less,
Now in my heart but a distress,
For ‘twould happen nevermore.
There in heaven, she would be well,
While on earth in this place I dwell,
Truly knowing what would be hell,
Never able to my love tell:
I do, sweet, forevermore.

Your last two pieces are very nice. :)
The first of the last is about being punished for something you are not guilty for, correct?
I like how you bring that idea into the piece with the last couple words.
The piece directly above this post is very moving. :O It flows very nicely and I enjoy the rhyme scheme. The central message and the story are conveyed within the words that flow so nicely together, which is very difficult to do.
Very good once again, Yrolg. Keep it up. :D
