LET ME NOT TO THE MARRIAGE OF TRUE MINDS - Poem - William Shakespeare


LET ME NOT TO THE MARRIAGE OF TRUE MINDS

-          William Shakespeare
-           
“Let Me Not to the Marriage of True Minds” is a sonnet written by William Shakespeare.  In this poem, Shakespeare speaks about constancy in love. The poet does not tolerate any obstacles in the course of true love. 

According to Shakespeare, love should not alter when it finds alteration.  It should not bend when troubles challenge.  Love should not shake before tempests.  It is an ever-mixed mark.  Love guides our lives.  It serves like a light to the wandering boats.

Love is not fooled by time.  Time can fade the rosy lips and tender cheeks.  Love does not change within hours or weeks.  It stands firm to the edge of the doom.  The poem ends with Shakespeare’s challenge that, if anyone proves him wrong he will stop writing and accepts that no one (man) ever left.
