My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.
But I say this
The sea has its limits
And sooner than you think,
Humanity will hit that line
And crash, falling apart
Like heartbroken lovers
And the depth of the sea,
What a terrible thing to call
The depths of love
For 10994 metres can only
Display the limit of how far
One would go for the other
Infinite love?
This is only what a
Lovesick fool would dream of
For lust is not love
Fervent heated desire that ends only
In hatred and sorrow
And the more lust
Gathered, the more
The man would lust after
And leave his sole lover
In the dust
Indeed, lust seems to be infinite
And there goes that old poem
Crushed into the bin
And another is written
Alike to its kin
Except
My love is as boundless as the sea,
Which has its boundaries
Approximately 22.2km away
My love as deep;
And 10994m I will leave you
Stranded alone to express my love
The more I give to thee,
The more I have,
Lusting after the girl
Leaving lover abandoned
for both are infinite
Lust, vicious and victorious
Over love
This modern shakespeare
Winning me with poetic grace
Dooming me to poetic grave

Not trying to critise shakespeare
But it's interesting how one can interpret poems
Especially by shakespeare
