Waiting For Love: a Sonnet

Waiting for love: a Sonnet 

 

Only the beauty that lies within 

Marks the truth of love and soul 

For underneath the plain façade 

Does hide a destiny and goal.  

 

But try as you might you cannot see 

The truth of love with blinded eyes 

You cannot love with all your being 

Until you have cleansed all the lies.  

 

So mark the place where passion starts 

Make this is common starting place. 

Unless you vow to stay alone  

For true love is full of truth and grace. 

 

You want the love of mine alone to touch your gentle heart 

You can must ask me just this once and I am ready to start.
