I loved you?
From the very depths of my soul?
My heart opened to you?
Like a flower in the sun?
You drew me to you?
With your honeyed words?
Your impish smile?
And your philosophy of life?
I’m glad you say you can never hurt me?
For I feel loved
?Even now when our time has gone?
And we’ve moved on?
With an understanding ?
That love alone provides?
To nourish our souls?
And give us strength?
Through life’s vicissitudes?
I shall always be grateful?
For what we shared?
Was a “once-in-a-lifetime” kind of thing.
