Since I did put the word poetry into the title of this whole bloggamajig, I figure I might as well put some of it on here.
It's my sonnet, written on Sunday 25th April, at around 6:30am, since poets don't sleep. Well...I guess they must do, but they're so used to blankly staring off into space all poetically, they just do it then. Me, I just couldn't sleep. Too much food the night before. Not nice.
I'm No Shakespeare, Just A Boy Wearing A Jacobean Ruff.
I’ve seen your eyes and how they scream my name
Your lips that only seem to whisper it
Yet still it be that call that leaves me lame
Far more frightened than I care to admit
I say not that our love is like a rose
For roses may wilt and thorns have drawn blood
With no perfect metaphor I suppose
Indescribable love is always as should
Words never seem enough to explain how
With all my heart and soul I love you so
More than my body will even allow
To leave brings more than a feeling of woe
I know I seem hopeful, for troubles that wait
But I know the joy we’re bound to create.
