True Love Waits

Today I felt my life come to an end You took the best of me without a thought For you was it just a game of pretend Within your web of sultry I was caught I don't believe that you ever loved me Is it possible that I could be wrong Did love somehow make you my enemy and now I'm left to sing this horrid song With sexy heels you stomped upon my heart I cried as I watched you walk out the door If only I had known from the start I wouldn't be a puddle on the floor Without you I don't think I will survive When you were with me I felt so alive I have missed you please won't you come back The sky without you is no longer blue Open the door of your love just a crack Kiss me baby I want to be with you I forgive you please dear won't you come home Not one day is complete without your love For you I'll write my thoughts within this poem My dear you are a vision from above Day and night you are always on my mind Your beauty is truly beyond compare There is no greater love that I will find A life of bliss together we can share Today my life it truly has begun I'll worship you as if you were the sun Thankfully a fictional write. Two English Sonnets for contest.

Even if Phillip will never judge this, it was a great contest... The first contest sonnets I wrote for Soup. I am awed by yours, they are wonderful. Really the push away-pull back in... Good it is fictional :)

I can write as you do also and those who read me think I am spilling my heart, especially my friends - I tell them no, I am a writer with a great imagination - yes, it is all fictional. WTG with these two heartfelt Sonnets... 7!

How a blessed with much happiness man can write painful poem as this? A beloved who is forgiven will always live in the shadow of his betrayal thus love would never grow my friend, Richard. I have to admit the power and beauty of your poem is evident!

Thanks Demetrios, by having experienced pain in other aspects of my life it helps me empathize with different aspects of the human experience. I am pleased by your response my friend.
