Love, Passion, Purpose (sonnet form)

You are significantly far away,
And yet you are so faithful to my heart.
Would you restrain my spirit's disarray?
And keep my mind from falling far apart?

Is actu'lly our spirit torn asunder?
I know we are not always close together,
Inside it brews a heartbeat loud as thunder.
I'd walk a thousand leagues in beastly weather.

I know these facts shan't cause me any pain,
I hear your voice, a sonnet in my mind.
You are so beautiful, 'tis hard t' abstain.
This maxim does me torture of a kind.

My heart so burns, intensity like fire,
The bonds we share, superior desire.


So much thinking... not just emotional thinking though, like smart thinking. First this was just some emotions about love that i wrote as an unorganized free-form poem. then, i got an assignment to write a sonnet from my teacher. so i sat there, thinking of what to write about. I was just sitting there... for a couple hours before i said, "hey! why not tranform one of my own poems into a sonnet? Genius! that way I can see what my thoughts look like when they're organized Shakespeare style!" Maybe i didn't exactly sound like that, but you get the picture. and plus it would sound better to the person it was intended for. Yeah, it was home work, but If I hadn't received this assignment, my poem would lack that Shakespeare spice... wtvr.
As for my Sonnet,
I got an A-... gosh.
i know it's not bad,
but i was just so into this project, and excited.
I'm cool with the grade i got.
