Help with this sonnet?? Please?




I have this sonnet for a project for English (we’re reading Shakespeare), and…I don’t know which ending to choose for the sonnet. Also, if you have any pointers or criticisms, they would be much appreciated! I won’t be offended if you tell me the sonnet is horrible, as long as you tell me why.

"Living"

Of clocks that tick and tock and tell of time
Of winds that pass, whisp’ring of happy days
Still lingering with ev’ry lone clock’s chime.
Is it not cruel, the art of Deaths’ dark ways?
It sweeps, a cold and unforgiving hand
Stealing away a soul so closely kept,
Slipping through one’s fingers like dry, coarse sand.
So countless lost and gone many have wept.

Ending 1:
However can a man bear to go on?
Is it not enough to bear grief and pain?
In this game of chess, people are life’s pawn.
Yet throughout all the storms, thunder, and rain,
Watch as the clouds part, and look for the sun.
If you never try, you’ll never have won.

Ending 2:
Heart’s hopes all fading and mind’s dreams all lost,
A light extinguished—a melting candle,
One instant, a life is forever paused.
Some relinquish, release their own handle.
Some hold on, not blinded by what they see.
Some lift their heads high, and others live free.

By the way, I originally had the first ending but scrapped it because someone told me it wasn’t relevant to the rest of the sonnet. What do you think?
