The lonely lover's thought

The lonely lover's thought

I am growing weary
Thining about the one i adore
Even when she forsakes me
I woul be glad to forgive in proportion as i love
Just when everyone condemns me
For the folly i indulge for love
When they make mockery of me
I shall give them my word
If thou rememberst not the slightest folly
That yee run into for love
Thou has not loved truly
When our being is in question
Fidelity bought with money is overcomed by money
Shall be my sordid word

For me this really speaks to true love and forgiveness. Impossible to have one without the other. Well done and well written.

This is so beautiful! yo are very eloquent, but not to the point of it being cryptic. you have to dive through several layers to get to the real meaning, but you know that there is one there. each word feels hand picked, like the speaker is trying desperately to articulate something, and refuses to get it wrong. the flow is absolutely perfect, and the meter is spot on. i love the theme of foolishness in love, because it really is universal. almost anyone can relate to what you are saying. i just tried to pick out a specific quote to say that i liked best, but i couldn't. the entire thing is just so beautiful through it's truth. it sounds almost lyrical, it's so beautiful. it reminds me of shakespeare or dickinson, just with the word choice and all. so what i'm trying to say in too many words, is that this is truely an exceptional piece, and a very lovely job.
