"Love Sonnet 1"
From fairest creatures we desire increase,
That thereby beauty's rose might never die,
But as the riper should by time decrease,
His tender heir might bear his memory.
But, thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes,
Feed'st thy light's flame with self-substantial fuel,
Making a famine where abundance lies,
Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.
Thou that art now the world's fresh ornament
And only herald to the gaudyspring,
Within thine own bud buriest thy content
And, tender churl, makest waste in niggarding.
Pity the world, or else this glutton be,
To eat the world's due, by the grave and thee.
by William Shakespeare
(1564-1616)
Love Sonnet 4
Unthrifty loveliness, why dost thou spend
Upon thyself thy beauty's legacy?
Nature's bequest gives nothing, but doth lend,
And being frank, she lends to those are free.
Then, beauteous niggard, why dost thou abuse
The bounteous largess given thee to give?
Profitless usurer, why dost thou use
So great a sum of sums yet canst not live?
For having traffic with thyself alone,
Thou of thyself thy sweet self dost deceive.
Then how, when nature calls thee to be gone:
That acceptable audit canst thou leave?
Thy unused beauty must be tombed with thee,
Which, used, lives th'executor to be.
by William Shakespeare
(1564-1616)
Love Sonnet 8
Music to hear, what hear'st thou music sadly?
Sweets with sweets war not, joy delights in joy.
Why lovest thou that which thou receivest not gladly,
Or else receivest with pleasure thine annoy?
If the true concord of well-tunèd sounds,
By unions married, do offend thine ear,
They do but sweetly chide thee, who confounds
In singleness the parts that thou shouldst bear.
Mark how one string, sweet husband to another,
Strikes each in each by mutual ordering,
Resembling sire and child and happy mother,
Who, all in one, one pleasing note do sing.
Whose speechless song, being many, seeming one,
Sings this to thee: "Thou single wilt prove none."
by William Shakespeare
(1564-1616)
Love Sonnet 39
Oh, how thy worth with manners may I sing,
When thou art all the better part of me?
What can mine own praise to mine own self bring?
And what is ?t but mine own when I praise thee?
Even for this let us divided live,
And our dear love lose name of single one,
That by this separation I may give
That due to thee which thou deservest alone.
O absence, what a torment wouldst thou prove,
Were it not thy sour leisure gave sweet leave
To entertain the time with thoughts of love,
Which time and thoughts so sweetly doth deceive,
And that thou teachest how to make one twain
By praising him here who doth hence remain!
by William Shakespeare
(1564-1616)
Love Sonnet 95
How sweet and lovely dost thou make the shame
Which, like a canker in the fragrant rose,
Doth spot the beauty of thy budding name!
Oh, in what sweets dost thou thy sins enclose!
That tongue that tells the story of thy days,
Making lascivious comments on thy sport,
Cannot dispraise but in a kind of praise.
Naming thy name, blesses an ill report.
Oh,, what a mansion have those vices got
Which for their habitation chose out thee,
Where beauty's veil doth cover every blot
And all things turns to fair that eyes can see!
Take heed, dear heart, of this large privilege:
The hardest knife ill used doth lose his edge.
by William Shakespeare
(1564-1616)

"Shall You Compare Me To One of Your Cigarettes?"
I’m just another cigarette you must have.
You hold me and I start on fire,
For you love me, or so you think.
I kiss your mouth with gentleness.
You say I taste good,
But is that bad?
You take in all I have to offer.
And I take you to a place you can’t resist,
Because you say I feel so good.
You exhale and that part is over.
Once is not enough,
You want some more.
I just wonder how much longer you’ll want me?
I guess not that long,
Because your through.
Since you took everything I could give you.
So you disguard me with one quick flick.
Then step on me to make sure...
That the fire is gone.
Now you must have another,
Because you have an addiction.
I hope she was as good as I was to you!
