Sonnet 18 by William Shakespeare

emotional hopeful inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

And every fair from fair sometimes declines,

Shakespeare's dead. Shakespeare's beloved's dead. And "THIS" is the "Eternal" living oath of them! Now I knew why it is the most famous one out of 154 sonnet! How gorgeously magical that hit hard to the core meaning of love, the worth of writing, How words lives! I'm obsessed of this sonnet!

But thy eternal summer shall not fade,

The way he had compared his beloved to the summer days, explaining how blessed those days are, where to remark she is more beautiful that it itself! Then resolute that comparing his beloved to nature is no use, it will end someday, it will die one day. He realised that his beloved must be compared to something immortal. His words! William Shakespeare's words are immortal.


So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
