Life and a Love
We were children
You made such
A first impression
Your eyes said much
Had such expression
Without a word spoken
I felt such a connection
I would have taken you
As a knight or a prince would do
To some place magical and yet real
It was so compelling in my soul
For you had sown love there
Then
It was not for us to be together
Not my choice
But life and parents and decisions
It is oddly wonderful after all this time
I remember you as you were
As I know you still are
Life and circumstances
They dictate the way things are
But they do not necessarily dictate much else
Certainly not the future
I choose to hang on to the hope
That I will get a chance
To be your knight or your prince
Or just plain old me
Which you will find is not plain at all
That is my love
That is what I offer you

I lost my first love not by choice
But by 1500 miles of relocation
By her parents
Enjoyed your write
Peace be with you

I really enjoyed reading 'Life and a Love.' I think it is deep, touching rhythmic and as usual, very original.
