First "Italian" Sonnet

[Todd]

Some nice updates in the edit. Comments below:

This one is written specifically for someone I know, so I wanna make sure it's nice and crisp! One of my main concerns is the volta; I'm not sure if the sonnet is supposed to do a complete 180, or rather just slightly shift focus. Meh. I'm still new

Also, not sure of a name for it yet. I'll get there.

Version 2.0:
still haven't decided a name

Ephemeral youth will turn and flee,--That's a nice personification, a good word choice with ephemeral, and a good first line. It feels like it might be missing a foot (though maybe that's my pronunciation of ephemeral.
then beauty’s but the substance of the past.--Maybe instead, "when beauty is the substance of the past."
The tone of silken skin will never last
inside the haze. Broken eyes decline to see--inside the haze feels a bit vague
the reaper! Reaching out to set you free… --probably capitalize the reaper. The exclamation point might be a bit too strong. I also don't know if the ellipses add much.
Regret for wasted time that spun too fast,--Spun is an interesting word when you think of the fate
and dreams unfilled that never came to pass--Look at the word unfilled. It means the same thing as never came to pass. Why not substitute it then with a word like unfurled which will play of the idea you started with spun, and makes us think of life's tapestry (fates again) being rolled out). Just a thought.
will devastate your innermost esprit.

As youthful hue is still upon your face
(and breasts to rival Helen’s, nice and round,)
the pleasures wrought by spring are ever yours!
So in my arms I pray you'll take your place
exploring sides of life that rest unfound,
together free to test forbidden doors.

I like how this is developing.

Best,

Todd
