...The story of a girl in London, England

Sonnet 13

3/9/11

And then again, can there be love without

Romance? For all my rationality,

Relationships seem fraudulent, cut out

Of pretty paper, pieced so perfectly

Together, like a puppets play. But life

Is more than this, all tied up in a bow.

It is a checkered mess. Perhaps the strife,

The lovers’ sad laments, just go to show

The lover’s joys in sharp relief. For when

The crushing rush of passion fuels the soul,

And hearts keep time beneath the skin, well then

You love. Not well thought out, or in control.

I’d rather have a broken heart, than say

I love when intellect has all the sway.
