Love Sonnet 145 When Gloom Abides With Me Tenaciously
When gloom abides with me tenaciously,
To sap my mirth off lame delights you left,
I hang on threads, dangling precariously,
Loveless, and now, even of hope, bereft:
How could you have chastised with so much stripes,
And walk me gallows, towards the noose?
There seems no antidote, my poor heart gripes,
To venom of the sting, you made me choose:
I'll wait, counting down days of black and gray,
Though hours will last longer, until you're back,
And time might freeze, to further the delay,
But come, put back my awry world on track:
.......For only when you do, will sorrows fly,
.......And once again, rainbows will fill my eye.
