Charmaine Chircop Poet Sonnet

Sonnet:How Far Will I Love You

My cherished one How far will I love you
As far as where moons dissolve in deep seas
Beyond the edge of a tide's crimson hue
where your breath quickens sails with fevered breeze.
Alone I'll embark to our promised land
across long borders of unending pain
Under fading stars above drifting sand
through anchored shadows of persisting rain.
Oh those foreign eyes yet not so distant
Your arms safe harbour of a warm embrace
Two hearts entwine against odds resistant
Neath' plum fog sky my lips outline your face.
Water rises 'tween silent hope and time
But water falls and I will make you mine.

Arthur Vaso October 28, 2016 at 3:07 PM Reminds me of this "I would climb the highest mountain for you, I would crawl across the hottest desert for you, I would sail the stormiest seas for you, I would battle a herd of wild boar just to be with you, I would conquer the mightiest army, to be with you, but I can’t come over tonight, it’s raining out!"

Daniel Turner October 25, 2016 at 10:19 PM So romantic Charmaine. A beautiful sonnet. I'm with Tim on this one. The form suits you well.

Chris Green October 25, 2016 at 5:08 PM Another beautifully mesmerizing piece that so vividly expresses how far one will go for the one they love. This is what many would love to hear, that they matter, thy matter so much that someone is willing to do most anything to secure their love.
