Volta

> Turn back the heart you've turned away > Give back your kissing breath > Leave not my love as you have left > The broken hearts of yesterday > But wait, be still, don't lose this way > Affection now, for what you guess > May be something more, could be less > Accept my love, live for today. > Your roses wilted, as love spurned > Yet trust in me, my love and truth > Dwell in my heart, from which you've turned > My strength as great as yours aloof. > It is in fear you turn away > And miss the chance of love today! > by James DeFord > > The following is a sonnet portraying volta. The author first is telling his lover not to turn from his love and heart. At the ninth line the author begins to tell his lover to embrace his love. This marks volta. > > [])
