Love Poems

by Douglas

IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a piece of a longer writing project. You can view the entire project here: Love Poems

The following is a piece of writing submitted by Douglas on September 16, 2008
"This is almost identical to Love Sonnet III (Eternal Love). I removed the names, and changed the concluding couplet.

The new couplet gives a vastly different meaning to the poem."

Determined Love (Love Sonnet IV)

My darling love and trusted faithful friend,
Beloved sweetheart, apple of my eye,
Our love, it is eternal, without end,
It shall not fail, not even when we die.
My love for you shall follow to the grave,
And to the life that waits beyond this earth;
This love is true, determined, faithful, brave,
Transcending our demise and new rebirth.
And in some bright, eternal, golden plane,
Where faithful spirits pass through pearly gates,
Our hearts, entwined, will surely meet again,
Ordained forever by the blessed fates.
Our love shall not be stopped by death's cruel border,
So what's the point of this restraining order?
