O, never say that I was false of heart, <br />Though absence seemed my flame to qualify. <br />As easy might I from my self depart <br />As from my soul which in thy breast doth lie. <br />That is my home of love; if I have ranged, <br />Like him that travels I return again, <br />Just to the time, not with the time exchanged, <br />So that myself bring water for my stain. <br />Never believe though in my nature reigned <br />All frailties that besiege all kinds of blood, <br />That it could so preposterously be stained <br />To leave for nothing all thy sum of good; <br /> For nothing this wide universe I call <br /> Save thou, my rose, in it thou art my all.<br /><br />William Shakespeare<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sonnet-109-o-never-say-that-i-was-false-of-heart/
