Definitely just wrote a sonnet.

I'm really excited about the sonnet I've just written.
Haha.
I think it's just the fact that it is a poem with a form.
I'm such a loser.
Anyway, I called it Sonnetry. (subject to change). And here it is...

We'll make love in verse
Each rhyme, each line better than the first
A bedspread of words, adjectives, nouns. verrbs
Our love will be like a complex sentence, perfectly formed with commas and semicolons as the different parts of us
I'll write you good and you'll write me better
Sealed with a kiss like a soldier's love letter
And whether or not the whole world's watching
We'll scribble our love across the night sky
Just you and me and the Most High
Like ink on paper, it'll be plain and simple, black and white
We'll love each other and we'll do it right
The combined rhythm of our hearts will create the beat to our love poetry
Soft and sultry
It'll be love the way it's supposed to be.

Definitely had to count to make sure it actually had fourteen lines. Ha.
Oh and musn't forget to thank Carol Ann Duffy who influenced this piece.
