Feeling the love.

After You

The images of days gone by
As little children laugh and cry-
And life goes on the way it should
Just after you- I understood.

A million things I could not see-
Or just would not occur to me-
Those answers that I felt denied-
Just after you- I found inside.

The magic something- out of reach
That only you could somehow teach-
I always came up empty- ‘till
Just after you- I had my fill.

From our first days I always knew
My heart was searching just for you
I just was too afraid, but then-
Just after you- I lived again.

And now, I close my eyes and smile-
At you and me- for just a while
It was a dream, that’s how I feel-
But after you- the love is real.

I can relate... ...but it is sad when circumstances beyond one's control seem to ruin everything that was perfect. We'll see what happens. Thank you, John. Love and peace to you,

What a deeply touching poem. Sometimes a person has that certain something that makes one "come alive" and happy to face each new day. Well scripted, poet!

Love ya!

Jane
