Almost Sonnet II

06/28/08

The moon loves you,

and so I do.

The stars cry with joy to see you,

and so I do.

The very sky above would give the world for you,

but that’s not why I love you.

I love you when you do not smile.

I love you because you cry.

I’ve loved you while I’ve hated you,

though I do not know why.

I love you, I love you, I love you.

The world for us is open.

For all the “whys” that cannot fathomed be,

I give you my heart, to break it, feel free.
