NEVER AGAIN

 

Never before and never again
My heart ached with such pain,
Now two decades plus
I still suffer the cost
 
All my dreams were wrapped up in you
Obligations kept me from saying I do,
Gentle and kind, ever so softly
Whispering in my ear, how much you loved me
 
How could I have been so blind?
Overlooking one so sublime,
Would this love pass my way again!
Such thoughts are futile and vain
 
Your kind heartedness and amazing beauty
For me is an indelible memory,
Perhaps my story will help someone
Whose love has just begun!
