sonnet #18

dearest you, i know we've just only met

even though i've seen you from afar for years

i've composed for you a delicate vignette

with regards to my thoughts and feelings sincere

i hate to see you leave but love to watch you go

because any time together is time well spent

a reign from above or a command from below

reduces me to nothing but a puddle of content

when we wake up together i pull you in close

to partake of your graces before greeting the day

when we sleep i find you in a gentle repose

of curves and shadows in your own silent way

you cut such a fine figure that nothing outranks

and for this please accept my most deepest of thanks
