Love Sonnet

Sean Casey



Ever have I been in love, bitter love
that brings me little solace, even less
surviving comfort. Its embrace, a void
conveying only cold in its caress.

Began as an affair, in many ways
I still had many others that I knew
loved me too. Caught in the exotic maze
of her, others faded, diseased love grew.

We courted, I asking that she permit
our souls to join for all eternity.
She would not give in, she would not commit,
and left me without, hateful destiny.

Some have been known to flirt with disaster,
but only a fool falls in love with death.
