For My Love Is Sheerest and True

Words, there are no words to speak  with this tongue 
Or songs not enough to sing with this voice,
That epitomize this feeling that clung
You, deep inside I love my heart rejoice

Never I think no more of the picture I see;
When your glistening eyes seek mine
That flannel- shirted smile is a torture
For my heart out pours with love so fine

Even when our memories fade in vain
As Time jostles away our Forever,
Just close your eyes and there you'll hear no stain
That is my heart for you, please remember

For my love I know is sheerest and true
And impediments halt me not love you

This sonnet was made for our Literature Class during my sophomore year in college and was written in a Shakespearean rhyme scheme. I can say that making this sonnet was really something to be proud of. I truly miss the times when everything was simpler and holding a pen and a paper to write brings me so much joy. I remember making this sonnet because I was thinking of that "special someone". Oh, how time flies.
