I could compare you to a summer’s day,
But see, you are far hotter and too sweet,
And summer is quite transient; will not stay
And after parting, leaves no one in heat.
Sometimes the pleasures in a summer’s glow
Leave one too lonely in their warmth too numb,
Without another heart that one can know
And in the night it fades to gloom and glum.

But see, your warmth and beauty shine a ray
That but grows sweeter in the thrill of night,
And leaves one yet in heat when you’re away,
And ever so your glory will bloom bright.
For you will shine, eternal as a star,
When these lines are forgotten as most are.
