SONNET 3

By Patricia Soto

Drawn I am to pools of hazel glory
And prey I have fallen to the mesmerizing glint
That has me foolishly idolizing thee
The influence thou hast on me has left a print
It lies embedded in my heart
Take a look if thou must
For thou hast driven out love from the dark
O, love, believe me, it is thou I trust
With my body, life, love, and soul
It is I who dreams of you so much
And it is I who will make your life whole
Kiss me, love me, how I long for your touch
O! That I wish I could drown in a river of you,
Never come up for air, and thus remain true blue
