Shall I compare thee to a rainy day?
For you are stormy when mad and dreary.

Or shall I compare thee to a bird of jay.

You are as blue as the bird and as eerie.
Maybe thee shall be compare to a December’s
Night. For you are cold and lifeless compared to

The snow you walk upon. Your soul is like ember

For which is bright like no other. You are who,
Shall I compare thee to my long life history?
You have been in my life forever and for always.

It may be to you such a long mystery.

Though everyday among the school hallways,
I think of many things but always of you and me.
I sigh because I know that it can never be.

&quot;Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.&quot; -Lord Alfred Tennyson

Ok now I know who you are talking about. Very obvious to me know. This is very deep. If only they could understand us...you know what I'm talking about I think. This description can be so accurate that its like you've known "forever and for always" but you "sigh because you know it can never be". Keep dreaming and wishing, and maybe, one day, someday soon, it will come true.
