Yearning for that which shall not be returned I openly confess my heart’s desires Only to end up abandoned and burned. You let me down gently; your mind retires. Yet I am left with a bitter disdain; The words relay in my mind to this day. Your harrowing response, terribly plain: “I love you so much, but not in that way.” The sun rises - each day begins anew. And so I will learn to move on from you.

Sonnet I
Yearning for that which shall not be returned I openly confess my heart’s desires Only to end up abandoned and burned. You let me down gently; your mind retires. Yet I am left with a bitter disdain; The words relay in my mind to this day. Your harrowing response, terribly plain: “I love you so much, but not in that way.” The sun rises - each day begins anew. And so I will learn to move on from you.
