A Shakespearean Sonnet

Before you, beauty couldn’t be defined Your eyes glisten like the sun on the sea To say I love you, I’m more than inclined Yes, I really hope you will stay with me Your face shines brighter than the mid-day sun Not even to an angel, you compare From more than six-billion, you’re the one The love I have for you, I dare not share You are my Lanore, with me here and now You are clumsy, yet graceful, like a dove Nothing bad to you, I should now allow You are the one I must say I do love For you are worth the most beautiful rhyme When I’m with you, wasted not is my time
