Classic Love Poem
Against My Love

 

More Classic Love Poems Page 1 | 2 | 3 | 4

 

 

Against my love shall be as I am now,

With Time's injurious hand crush'd and o'erworn;

When hours have drain'd his blood and fill'd his brow

With lines and wrinkles;

when his youthful morn

 

Hath travell'd on to age's steepy night;

And all those beauties whereof now he's king

Are vanishing, or vanished out of sight,

Stealing away the treasure of his spring;

 

For such a time do I now fortify

Against confounding age's cruel knife,

That he shall never cut from memory

 

My sweet love's beauty,

though my lover's life:

His beauty shall in these black lines be seen,

 

And they shall live,

and he in them still green.

William Shakespeare
