"A sonnet about death but viewed through the lens of change; that which is desired must eventually fade, yet love wishes this was not so. In the spirit of Spenser, I too break from tradition."
A death that comes along the bitter road
It signifies the toll that must be paid
Or as the poet tells us in his ode,
Does love defeat the evils in their raid?
This end we see can only serve to aid
But loss of love will serve to end our joy
Confusion lasts, and tastes of bitter ade
Death blends among us only to destroy
A life we know ends as as a fatal ploy
But must we at these ends always succumb?
Should the end be met with hate’s alloy?
Or illness too; is nothing to be done?
Think not you know of what I write above
I seek only to resurrect my love
