the view that Shakespeare’s sonnet 116 is what a love poem should be: an expression of perfect love. The definition of perfect love is subjective‚ however it could be seen as fearless and endless love‚ with utter devotion and allowing nothing to get between the lovers. Sonnet 116 describes examples of these traits‚ in which love is described to be the most powerful force‚ and even stronger than "tempests" and other aspects of nature. The initial lines of the sonnet describe how "love is not love"
