Shall I compare thee to a summer…
Oh! You fail to complete the line,
Take a thing that was once mine.
No more to share our gaze,
Entranced, in rapture.
Our hearts captured.
Our union
Of souls
Lost.

Whoaaaa, your photo is gorgeous! Your poem was poignant and emotional! I loved it!
This definitely heartbreaking 😔
Excellent!!! I like the way you started it out but quickly turned it around. Very clever manipulation of the emotions.
Well done.
