Indecent Proposal

 

Oh, Shakespeare my darling, to thee I do speak

of a time in my being, I wish we could meet

 

your words and passion, in me I do seek

the Sonnet in you, that I search within me

 

this play in my heart, that I keep for thee

the need to write poems, for thee to then read

 

I desire a lesson, just thee and me

answers on rhythm and rhyming, I need

 

I’m curious, your talent is so very clear

“hell is empty and all the devils are here”

 

your poetry makes my mind want to paint

to your words, my love I can truly relate

 

hoping to find you, somewhere in me

without style I’m lost, I just cannot see

 

come to my dream, at least one time?

give me your wisdom on midnight’s chime

 

oh lover thy be, oh lover thy be

would you, could you have desire for me?

 

my question therefore is…

 

to be or not to be?
