SONNET I

How can I look into your auburn eyes
When the light of your soul is so blinding
More radiant than the sun in our skies
Purer than when a thousand angels sing

Winter wanes in your perpetual spring
Chased by the glow of your fiery hair
Into my heart that never stops burning
Into this inextinguishable prayer

Life without you is living without air
Is locked away for an eternity
If I turn around and you are not there
I would be a river without the sea

For you are the fire that burns my veins
You are the sun for the rest of my days
