Sonnet 93 Remix



So shall I live, supposing thou art true,

I don’t wanna be fooled

Into falling in love with you

It seems like we were just getting to know one another so well

That in thy face sweet love should ever dwell;

For there can live no hatred in thine eye,

Hello always means goodbye

So babe

 

I won’t stop telling you everyday how much I need you around

I know you’re up in the sky but I don’t know when you’ll be back down

I wake up looking for you but I guess it depends on the day

Writ in moods, frowns and wrinkles strange,

Is it hello or goodbye?


How like Eve's apple doth thy beauty grow,

if thy sweet virtue answer not thy show!

I been gone for a while

I can see the same story in her eyes

I’m like, the sun better learn to shine, I’m feeling blind

Will you stay for a while?

Thy looks should nothing thence but sweetness tell.

Honestly, though poetry is not a subject I tend to visit frequently, I enjoy reading and deciphering the meanings of any poetry in all forms. As a music enthusiast, I find that music with lyrics that have no purpose might as well not of included the lyrics and just sold the instrumental. As an actor, without the many poetic forms involved in theater acting wouldn't have its impact. So in a way, by becoming a poet, I am completing a required skill set needed to be successful in my industry. I am an African-American Male with a heart of gold, a mind of power, and a soul found only in the depths that is the bible. I am an artist. And not just in a sense of art like pictures or paintings, but an artist in the sense of creating things and beings and characters and messages of magnificent magnitude. I live in my mind and soul. Poetry can o0nly show my true form.
