Do Not Compare Your Love to Mine

A poem

Do not compare your love to mine
For what you saw were glittered rays
I saw the cosmos, shooting stars
The beginning and the end of days

Do not compare your love to mine
For mine is sonnets, poetry
Whilst your love’s essence lacks a theme
And grace, and poise, and symmetry

Do not compare your love to mine
Unless you want to be disgraced
The difference being, if I might
That mine could never be erased
