Do You Still?

A love so pure, so rare, so passionate,
A hunger unsustained but yet increased,
Her absence fuels this need so base and yet,
Have these same needs my lover feels decreased?
Through endless days my fires diminish not,
But am I doomed to burn yet burn in vain?
Is solitary love to be my lot,
And do my love's desires begin to wane?
For with my love does love begin and end.
How senseless would it be to love anew?
She touches me and ecstasy descends,
Just as the first to thrill me ever through.

Do passion's glowing embers simmer still
Or does her lack of passion cause my chill?

Isn't hard to still that doubt that love will inevitably leave? Enjoyed this.

I enjoy occasionally trying my hand at sonnets. I enjoy reading beautiful sonnets even more. Wonderfully written.

This is a very well-done sonnet. The doubts do seem inevitable, don't they?

David2,

How utterly romantic this is! A beautiful sonnet to carry me with me throughout the day.

(By the way, I bet she still does.)
