What did I do before you
my love?
I thought I was happy
or so it seemed.
Was I happy or just content,
during all those lonely
years past spent?
So much has changed,
I'm alive again!
Your love flowed over me
like a soft gentle rain.
It's like the sunshine
shining so bright,
with not a storm cloud in sight!
Like the light from
a big full moon,
illuminating the darkest
shadow's of night.
With your love there is no
fear or pain
in sight!
All the year's that came before
Were filled with heartache,
pain and deceit.
There was no common ground,
only door's that continuously
slammed,
Leaving pain all around.
True love just seemed
to pass me by,
I,
too afraid
of another black or blue eye.
For sixteen years
I gave my heart,
But it was abused
almost from the very start!
Promises broken,
never meant to be kept,
All those wasted years
I wept.
I saw no reason
to search again........
Better alone than to
face the unknown.
Three son's I bore,
They've gave me love galore,
for that I have no regrets!
But, another Love?
I sought not to find.
The other still painful
upon my mind.
Then you came
like a cleansing rain,
and the meaning of love
will never be the same!
Secure within your loving arms,
with your love there
can be no alarm.
It can only bless us,
together we reinvent
loves softest song!
