Sonnet: No, I cannot see the wind.

(Inspired by "Can you see the wind?" by Adele on Writerscafe.org, it was a very inspiring work, please check it out if you haven't :D )

If you ask me if I can see the wind, 

I would deny, "I have seen her never",

Because I, myself, am no turbine, 

I couldn't keep her for myself ever,

But I know she is with me, 

Since she always lends me her whispers,

I always follow wherever she leads me,

Even during heavy dreams and summer fevers,

There are nights I dreamt of her coming by,

Paying a visit to my tight and closed chambers,

There are nights I felt her touches, they are not shy,

Cuddling together under nights when stars are our rulers,

So even if this love is not reciprocated, I am her lover,

Even if I can't see the wind, we are still together.

Author's Note

My first sonnet ever, so I am very much outside of my comfort zone.

Thank you for your kind review!
I did my best to make my first sonnet despite my beginner clumsiness and it turned out to be quite a pleasant treat to read, and for that I am content.
