Inamorata - A series of poems about Her.

Figured I'd share some poetry about a girl I was (sorta still am) head over heels for. One poem used a line from my favorite poem by William Shakespeare, Sonnet 18.

Inamorata

When the light has dimm'd, And I, who hath come whirling among the plague of desolation Would trade all of Life's memories To halt the fleeting ecstasy That is you

Her #1

Why is loves notion so disconcerting? When love is shared by one But burdened by another, it is destined to fail. For the one who seeks fortune, Is the one who loses it.

Her #2

Does there exist a woman as lovely as you? If'n when my despondency has grown And you, who hath consumed my soul, Having already unearthed serene comfort. Remember--

So long as men can breathe and eyes can see, So long lives this, and this life gives to thee.

Her #3

Rough waves do break the darling shores of time; And my eyes which once peered yours lay crossed, yet I continue; Relinquishing hopeless ambitions. For I have stared into Depression's eyes, And it's nary a site to behold.
