A Sonnet

Hearts quaking with all the emotion

Promises spoken, “I’ll never leave you”

“I cannot live without you; it’s true!”

Every day it is shown, that devotion

One day, the ship starts sinking in the ocean

Words are still spoken; the lie comes, “I love you too.”

But nothing is meant between these two

And soon it all is counted as misdevotion

As he drives away

Leaving her breaking inside

Trying hard to forget those days in May

As the gap inside both of them grows ever wide

But, no, it is too late to turn around and stay

For the love inside has already died
