Salvatore
A boy agrees to take her heart away
beneath the cold and salty waves of blue.
Again he loves and hopes to see the day
return to light and show her what is true.
To keep her safe, he’d die inside the sun
because he wants to know that she’d grow old.
To him, her love is something to be won.
Her smile is like a gift he should unfold.
A slave to sun, he hides within the dark.
The way he lives his life today: arcane.
Afraid, because he knows that her remark,
would be her saying, “he’s become insane.”
His lies are meant to keep her safe from bites,
her blood is what he craves with all his might.

This poem is one of many that I'm having to write for my poetry workshop at school. This is my sonnet. I was watching The Vampire Diaries while working on it, and so somehow it turned into this.
