Shakespeare's Sonnet 13 - "O! that you were your self but, love, you are"

Many thanks to all my subscribers and followers. A reading by Octavia Selena Alexandru. “Sonnet 13 by William Shakespeare “O! that you were your self; but, love, you are No longer yours, than you your self here live: Against this coming end you should prepare, And your sweet semblance to some other give: So should that beauty which you hold in lease Find no determination; then you were Yourself again, after yourself's decease, When your sweet issue your sweet form should bear. Who lets so fair a house fall to decay, Which husbandry in honour might uphold, Against the stormy gusts of winter's day And barren rage of death's eternal cold? O! none but unthrifts. Dear my love, you know, You had a father: let your son say so.“ *Instagram: Personal Film Projects: TV/Film/Stage Credits: Video editing for y
