To Love Thy Lady Shakespearian Style

A fun attempt at a different style.

 

To truly love one's soul fully

Is to let your passion burn

Like eternity has come and gone,

Appreciate every ounce of beauty

Flowing from thee truest one’s heart,

Memorize every line, curve, smile

So when separated by miles

They are never more then a blink away.

Let not false distractions

Of mundane duties nor flesh of strangers

Cast sins upon your heavenly devotion,

Layin' it to rest in the depths of hell.

For when the one

That brings out heaven within

Thy heart like a prayer answered

They should be worshiped not forsaken

Or life shall become a self-purgatory.

It sounds like what to do with a great love once u find it you hold on to it treat as if the best thing u cant live without however for if "forsaken ....life will become a self purgatory" Powerful poem! It touches on many levels of what language used to be about when the language was love such as Romeo and Juilet!

[Androglossia]

For someone who have come to decide to indulge in excessive sentimentality: bows to you. You have just created a classically romantic piece:)

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you so much... I was trying a style out of my element but I enjoyed writing it. I am just a hopeless romantic.

[Androglossia]

Which is a good thing:) You're very welcome.

Loving someone means worshiping them and staying true to them or their memories always and anyways. Love is all about faith & fidelity!

Loved this poem! A very uplifting & reassuring read.

I like the philosophical messages throughout this piece. The words expressed in each verse are so beautiful, deep, and meaningful.

[EmpressPoetess]

A true definition of what true love can do; the actions and reactions from deeply felt emotions. great writing!

[Chloe..Across the Unive..]

Beautiful and so romantic ... seems you are a romantic . This advice reminds me of Bryan Adams song Have You Ever Love A Woman...
This is just as good...

My God….
I have no words..
To say….
Your lines charmed me….
I am in its spell…
Cow boy you are not a boy…you are a giant….

Mm. I love this, and I've missed your poetry(my fault for being gone). I would change the last line to read "Or life shall become a self-made purgatory", but that might be just me.

"Like eternity has come and gone" is probably my favourite line. :)
