Love That Goes the Distance

Accidental Poet



 

All I ever wanted in life

Was love that last

Even before I knew what love was

Love of life without contrast

 

And when love came to my virgin heart

Too young was I, most would say

But I followed my heart

Eagerly of come what may

 

She cast her spell on me

As no one else before her

All with the loveliest of smiles

Propelling me through love’s door

 

With everything going on in the world

All life’s outrageous distractions

At the end of the day

I’m comforted by my favorite attraction

 

As I think back of Sharon

So many memories come to mind

And they’re more than just memories

Each and every one sweeter than wine

 

All I wanted of life

Was love of no resistance

Which I found in Sharon’s smile

Love that goes the distance

      I suspect that should each of us slow right down and see each nook and cranny of Memory Lane, we shall find that very same purest of budding love! Good to read from your poetry again. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

        Thank you arqios, Memory Lane is no stranger to me, as I'm sure the same for you. Appreciating the past makes for a proud future. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘

            If I ever had a crush of my own it would definitely be with Kris Kristofferson, I've loved him forever so ce i was a child, which in turn is how you feel about Sharon, a beautiful delicate piece I feel it so much. ๐ŸŒน
