Sonnet

I suppose we could be quite a pair, me and you
Hungering in the days apart, as well as when
We thrive side by side the many ways we do
And too, well I'd wonder if it possible then
Perfection of mind, body, soul completes your style
Come to think of it, what I really want to say
You embody everything I feel worthwhile
All that's worth the living, having, giving away
As things seem so temporal with destruction near
I reach for some certainty in your self, which makes
Heartbeat increase, pulse rise the moment you appear
Your presence to me like immortality takes
On noble sacrifice for falling stars so rare
As there are stars galore, but none like you to spare
