My Sonnet


Can I only love you in time ago?
When nature’s breath still blessed your fragile heart
And I knew not the rhythm’s beat of woe
For youth does think it safe from life’s depart
But then I lost your pulse one winter night
I searchéd every inch from pole to pole
To find you’d gone beyond my mortal sight
And so despair did pulse within my soul
Until I listened closer to the sound
For grief is but the cry of love set free
From earth’s constraints, no longer is it bound
And now I know, for you, my heart’s decree.
    The beat of love transcends your mortal breath
    Unmuted by the roar of time nor death
