The poem also says that love should last forever and not just go away when the person isn’t beautiful any more. If you really love someone, you love the person for who he/she is, and you don’t try to make the person someone else.

The idea behind it is that love doesn’t try to change people. This is one of Shakespeare’s most famous love sonnets. If this be error and upon me proved, I never writ, nor no man ever loved. Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. Poem #2 “Sonnet 116” by William Shakespeare Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments.
