It’s a Sonnet! But Who is the Lover? Is It You?

0


Days bleak, darkness comes, the only feeling is the numb in my thumbs.

Oh, why is it so cold? Why is there no heat?

I have paid so much to feel so beat.

But what is this coming? A warmth from within

Deep in my heart; a lustrous sin.

But it’s not from within! It’s down by my feet

My tingling toes are packed full of heat.

I have fallen in love with a faceless lover with a lover’s note saying, ‘please do not cover.’

In these bleakest of times with long days of exams

A light has come forth saving my frostbitten hams.

Thirty pounds a month for heating and bills

Yet the cold could creep in giving me chills.

But alas I’ve found love – not with her, they, or boy

For now I’ve discovered it – the radiator, my one true joy.
