I Have Waited Many Years For You (Keats Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

I Have Waited Many Years For You (Keats Sonnet)



I have waited many years for you,
and now is the time for us to mend
even if our loving at times were fain,

and by our love all things will be new,
that which life between us did bend,
even if I had to make peace with a enemy

and after times of pain, when tears fell like rain
to each other we will never be untrue
while together we will live to life's end

and never again there will be pain
while from the past we will be totally free
as you are deep in the depths of my heart

and the sun will shine bright with tranquillity
while never again we will be apart.
