The Chance Meeting
I met you on the downtown sidewalk
Outside that little café we once adored
You still looked every bit as pretty
And I knew from your love I wasn’t cured
You ask me how I’m doing now
I smile and say I’m getting by
You ask me if I’m truly happy
I don’t tell you that I often cry
You ask me have I found someone
I have to tell a little white lie
You ask me if I’m ever sorry
I just hang my head and sigh
You say you’re getting married
I choke out that I wish you well
You invite me to your wedding
I nod but want to scream and yell
You give me a friendly farewell hug
My heart just seems to stand still
You say goodbye and walk away
In summer’s warmth I feel a chill

Peace Love And light...Morning star
does this feeling ever get past any of us? If we tell the truth, it doesn't.It's sad that we can't have everyone we desire. That is one of life's trials. This one causes a flutter in my stomach.
Blessings and love,

I went looking for mine :) and I found him, and it was a 4 years disaster :(
I Love The Dickens Outa Him Thou. I have known him for 28 years. He is a womanizer. I can't blame him for looking-but sharing? Well I can't have that because I am a very selfish woman :) so I loved him enough to turned him loose on all the lovely ladies out there. He tried to be loyal. lol
Your Poem Is Yearning With Hope, and still sad. Your font is beautiful.
