YOUR ANSWER IS BELOW⬇️
The poet begins by stating he should not stand in the way of "the marriage of true minds", and that love cannot be true if it changes for any reason; true love should be constant, through any difficulties. In the seventh line, the poet makes a nautical reference, alluding to love being much like the north star is to sailors. Love also should not fade with time; instead, true love is, as is the polar star, "ever-fixed" and lasts forever.

Ideal love is deteriorating throughout the sonnet and continues to do so through the couplet.
