There are so many things on my true heart

of hearts that I want to forever share.

Typically, many times I simply start

beginning to show you how much I do care

for someone new. It just doesn't work out

I want so much and expect so much more,

and yet, once again, I could scream and shout.

Why does my love have to be such a chore?

I have so much now that is within

my heart. I want to tell the whole wide world.

I just don't know how to start, to begin,

or how it will all finally unfurl.

There are so many things I want to say

and yet, some how, the words get in the way.

Author's Note: ... I wanted to write a "flowing" sonnet for a friend who is having difficulties.....
