THE BROKEN-HEARTED LONELY GIRL

 

“There’s a perfect mate for me

Somewhere in the world” she’d say

Having been let down by love

And she was a lonely girl

In between bouts of desperate love

That left her in a whirl

Until she is all consumed and is again

The broken-hearted lonely girl

THE GREATEST LOVE OF ALL WAS OURS

 

The greatest love of all was ours

I felt I could reach up and touch the stars

As my love was return by my sweetheart

And I knew we would never be apart

PERFECT IMPERFECT LOVE

 

It was a perfect love,

But a secret love,

And it was also tainted,

By deceit and betrayal

Sneaking away for

Illicit rendezvous

In the dead of night

To lay with their lover

Til the break of day,

But neither were free

So that was not perfect

And they knew it was wrong

But they couldn’t stop

For that perfect love

Made them feel so alive

They had found their life’s love

And though they knew

Their love was doomed

And tears would be cried

And hearts broken

They held on to their

Perfect imperfect love

Until the bitter end

IT HAD HAPPENED ONE SUMMER NIGHT.

 

We met at the beach party

On the wide ocean shore

And we danced by moonlight,

As the sea breeze caressed us

It was a magical night

The rapture of the music,

Feeling enraptured by you.

But as special as it was

Dancing with you

On that moonlit beach

It paled to insignificance

Compared to walking

Hand in hand with you

The next day in the sun

FALLING IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE

 

Falling in love with someone

Can be a blessing and a curse

But when love is reciprocated

It is a prize beyond worth

I MET A LADY THAT LIT MY FIRE

 

I met a lady that lit my fire

Dressed in beautiful attire

Who I did instantly admire,

And whose heart I did desire,

But knew I would ever acquire

ON THE HILL TOP SHE CHOSE TO HIDE

 

On the hill top she chose to hide

In the home where her parents reside,

Whereas I live down the hillside,

Where my brother and his wife abide.

But though the gulf between us was wide

I still planned to make her my bride
