We were so wrong,
That we made it right.
We slept through the day,
And only talked at night.
We never told the truth,
We only lied.
We always laughed,
When we should have cried.
We were never bland,
We had to add spice.
We were always naughty,
But rarely nice.
We used the words hate,
Instead of using love.
We fell into a ditch,
Instead of rising above.

As bluemagnet said: "Thnx for ur feedback:) but honestly i'm kinda tired of everyone talking about how the poems r in the "wrong" categories....doesn't the content n flow of the poem matter more?"
I agree about the flow of the poem, but a sonnet has a specific form. You cannot call your poem a sonnet if it is not. I like your poem, it's beautiful, but it really isn't a sonnet. I've written them before, and they are a tough form to master.
