When one meets an old love, how can one say how they will react. Honor kept them bound to not doing to much wrong. This is a nicely written sonnet, Mikey. I enjoyed reading it. good luck in the contest. Miss Sally

If you find your soul mate you should never let them go. If that same soul mate belongs to another... well that is the question. This is a great poem written from the heart. Thank you for sharing.

I think it really depends on each individual case. If no one really gets hurt by it, I guess it is OK. Excellent rhyming and you have captured the sense of romance well with your words. Excellent rhyming, good luck in the contest. One thing I spotted, verse 3, line 1, should read our hearts' desire. Faye

This is an excellent sonnet about torn affections and obligations due to an affair. You display visual and descriptive lines and rhymes. It something that no matter how many decades have passed, one can never forget that great love.
I enjoyed reading your poem. I wish you success in the contest.

Michael: Congrats on a great poem of fire and desire and honor. I am going through this with my daughters - who do you trust and want to spend a life time together? What if's can repeat but true love is key. I like tasting her sweet lips and daydreams and grand as gold. Great descriptions and beat. flylikeaneagle

Very nice Michael, a worthy sonnet. I just don't care for the first line of the second stanza. It seems forced to me. Just my opinion but I think you should think up an alternative line. There are many ways to say it and still keep you rhyme and meter.( Then she appeared before me grand as gold.) Your choice. :<) Nancy

I love the picture. I love the quaint language of the poem. These people were not wrong. I do not expect a spouse to forget the loved ones that came before me. I only expect loyalty. I know I light a fire as hot or hotter than his other loves. I do not want to be the only love. Just the last. Great work.

This is a very passionate and strong love sonnet. The images you paint are remarkable good while following the rhyme and the rhythm of a Sonnet. Great image selection.

Oh the master has yet to fail me.
Very well done.
Point taken and thrown back to be thought and mulled over.
Sonnets don't come easy for me but you breezed through this

Yes it does happen. I don't think the good or bad of it enters the picture unless there are children that can be potentially hurt. Attraction is not always fair and we are only human. Very nice work with this one, I enjoyed it very much and an sure many can relate to this one too. I wish you all the beset in the contest too.
