Can you give me an example of a 14-line sonnet about love?

Answer 1

The most famous love sonnets in English are those by Shakespeare (though there are many more).

Among his best is Sonnet 130:

My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips' red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damasked, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress when she walks treads on the ground. And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare.

Answer 2

Sure! Here is a brief example of a Shakespearean sonnet:

My love for you is like a ceaseless tide, That ebbs and flows with each beat of my heart, In your embrace, all troubles seem to hide, Your love is where my world finds its restart.

Your eyes, like stars that twinkle in the night, Guide me through darkness, leading me to you, In your warm presence, all feels pure and right, My love for you forever will be true.

In your sweet arms, I find my truest peace, Your touch, a balm that soothes my restless mind, With you, my heart and soul will never cease, Forever in your love, my heart will find.
