Sonnet #2
A Sonnet About the Way Young Love Comes and Goes
It seems like nothing will ever be the same
And still some nights I'm up until dawn
Tossing and turning over our foolish games.
I was a child, my heart was still young...
You didn't know much more.
But those sweet words rolled so gently off your tongue
When you walked through my door
Today things are different- we barely speak.
You've gone your own way; I'm finding mine.
In our time together I hit my life's peak
But telling you so would cross the line.
Time will pass but, please, forget me not
And remember, you are, truly, the one I sought.
