Sonnet 116. (Along with the rest.) Along with snippets of bad poetry by yours truly. It’s bad, but it was heartfelt at the time. (Still don’t know if that’s a good thing or not…) My love is my life. My life is devoted to you. I want to hold you in my arms, My angel, my love so true. ---

It makes all of the times alone bearable.)_ ---
