Eternal love is the main point of Shakespearean sonnet 116. The great poet states that, “Admit impediments. Love is not love/Which alters when it alteration finds” (Shakespeare 251, lines 2-3). Shakespeare also believes that love cannot be shaken or destroyed, and it should serve as the guiding star for the person in love. By writing, “Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks/But bears it out even to the edge of doom”, the poet means that love, unlike beauty, does not alter with time and ends only with death (Shakespeare 251, lines 11-12). I agree with Shakespeare’s sentiment of love because true love is not only the feeling generated in the brain and sensed throughout the whole body but also the long journey of commitment to another person.
True love is a life-long commitment combined with an initial feeling of strong attachment to a person. Shakespeare praises eternal love in his 116’s sonnet. I agree with the poet’s idea that true love should not alter with time: “Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks” (Shakespeare 251, line 9). True love requires acceptance and support for loved ones despite the hardships of a lifelong journey. Furthermore, I agree that true love gives guidance and hope to overcome obstacles and achieve incredible results. Indeed, love is sometimes the only feeling that helps people survive inhuman torture and suffering. If people cannot be committed to their loved ones until death, I agree with Shakespeare that “no man ever loved” (Shakespeare 251, line 14). To conclude, true love is timeless and boundless because only authentic feelings can give people the strength to remain committed to one person until the end.
