Mountains, it will be easier to breathe,

I want to make all your orifices cream.

While riding the line of dying and life,

your blood will rush and your head will get light.

Anyone else would confuse your moans and screams

to that of a person in dire need.

I know your need, for your muscle to spasm.

Lustful lady, let light licks loosen lips.

Heartbeats metronome, I’m the guitarist.

Curiously, I play to see what noise

You can make. What else can I juice from those

loose lips? A waterfall should be jealous.

I looked to send you an email, but there isn't a place for that. I just wanted to tell you that a sonnet is fourteen lines, with every other line rhyming and the last two lines (alone at the end of the sonnet) rhyme. Here is one of mine so you will be able to understand it better.

Life's Sonnet #46


Gentle wind your name is Forevermore,
Your sweet breath sings to me of long ago.
That special someone I cannot ignore,
Tho thinking of her brings my spirits low.

Her face made the bluebirds chirp joyful tunes,
A smile from her made me happy and free.
Soothing wind make my thrashing heart immune,
From yon destruction when I lost the key.

I beg of you, oh silent breeze of yore,
Stay your winds as were, vengeance do not call,
Oh, let me count the ways I do deplore,
I kiss yesterday's faults, but will not crawl.

Nanette had much love she wanted to share,
I took what I could and then left it there.

what you described is a Shakespearian sonnet
