A Love Poem

Beloved, turn off the lights, speak to me; Is your heart to be evermore my own? Does my name slip from your lips silently... content, that I should need ne’er more to moan. ~ Beloved, watch close loves acquainted eyes, reflections holds no secrets from within; for the souls bidding eyes will ne’er tell lies, remember, doubt not, your want is my sin. ~ Beloved, wilt thou walk with me through dreams; come lay with me as if I were dying. Kiss my mouth, give me water from your stream; Listen love...the voice of the rain’s crying. Loves lives through winters cold, summers fire, Though daybreak begins, and night retires.

An assured poetic voice and effective closing couplet-always a challenge with a Shakesperian sonnet. Also like how nature is exploited to convey feelings. Great

Liked the sonnet very much. Love is mostly geared for the sonnet, I suppose. Somehow the rhyming scheme and the artful, poetical expertise by the writer (you) carries the day in this beautiful poem of love.
