To No One Else

Accidental Poet



 

The history we share

Times of our youth

Why our paths came to cross

Our shared truths

 

My memories of you

Your memories of me

And somewhere I pray

As one they’ll come to be

 

The people in your life

And those in mine

What they know of us

Like a long-forgotten wine

 

And still, you and I

What little time we shared

Miniscule to our memories age

The rear-view mirror of our cares

 

Though you are not by my side

You are here in my heart

Since the first second I saw you

This love from a long ago start

 

I’ll go to my grave Sharon

 My heart belonging to you

For to no one else

I can be more true

    Good write AP.

    Dear A P,

    Reading your poem(s) about Sharon give me nostalgic memories of my own.
    The American romantic drama,
    ‘The Bridges of Madison County’
    is a perfect example of which I speak.

    I love your written words in totality, especially…

    ‘Though you are not by my side
    You are here in my heart’

    Thank you for sharing.

      Thank you Laura for reading and your compliments on my writing of Sharon. I know I write a lot about her, and I hope no one gets bored of it. But that's the level of love I've always felt for her, who now would be much older than when we first knew each other. But she's always been the queen of my heart, and I can't help but let it show. 💖

      • Laura🌻

        For me, dear A P, your writings about Sharon never bore me. As a matter of fact, they fill me with much love and empathy. Blessings to you and to the queen of your heart.💝

        Happy Sunday.

                Beautiful!
                wonderfully measured
                the masterful characterisation
                of untimely yearning, conflicting with steadfast loyalty
                and the gritty reality of raw feeling's, conveyed in that film
                is a wonderful fit, for the way you poetically express
                your similarly, ill-fated love
                and how, you choose to focus on its immeasurable blessings
                in your life...
                thank you! dear poet
                (I'm gonna try and watch that classic again, soon)
