I Have Something to Say

116

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments.
Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand'ring bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me prov'd,
I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.


Still stands true for me....You?? No??

I didn't think so.
It is beautiful but like so many beautiful things, implemented literally it leads to less beautiful things like stalking and obsession.

If the alteration one finds is "I don't love you anymore", one doesn't have to go along, but one does have to go away.

Yes, it still applies. It was one of the many sonnets that we had to memorize in high school English class.
