heartbreak sonnet

Shall I persuade you to a dance with me 

You are so beautiful I can’t resist

The dance floor looks so empty without thee

Sweat peaks through the surface like morning mist

Don’t go away because you’re all I have 

It would be wrong to leave me all alone 

So be the bigger person and be brave 

And others will see that we are both grown 

Well now that you know what’s been on my mind   

I deem this will be our last encounter 

We’re easily leaving our past behind 

Never took you for much of a downer 

But I intervened and messed up our fate
