A melody resides within your gaze Of sultry brown and subtle lighter streaks. It sings a song of heated summer days, With promises of love in warmer weeks. Your eyes met mine and I could not resist, The notes they sang were like a siren hymn. True; lips as sweet as yours I'd never kissed, This love did not come purely on a whim. But as time passed the warmth in them grew cold, Your melody turned quiet on its own. The distance made the song grow awfully old, And soon enough I found myself alone. As summer faded slowly into fall True love was lost; my siren lost his call.

Sonnets Are For Squares
A melody resides within your gaze Of sultry brown and subtle lighter streaks. It sings a song of heated summer days, With promises of love in warmer weeks. Your eyes met mine and I could not resist, The notes they sang were like a siren hymn. True; lips as sweet as yours I'd never kissed, This love did not come purely on a whim. But as time passed the warmth in them grew cold, Your melody turned quiet on its own. The distance made the song grow awfully old, And soon enough I found myself alone. As summer faded slowly into fall True love was lost; my siren lost his call.
