Let Love Lead the Way

Accidental Poet



Let Love Lead the Way

 

Do you question events in your life

Like where you’re meant to be

Do you ever lay awake at night

Hearing whispers in your heart from me

 

When you moved away from New England

There’s some real estate you left behind

Your name on the deed

The deed to the lonely heart of mine

 

Why do I let you rule my heart?

Maybe because its my life to live

Even if you don’t love me

Still my love to you I give

 

For less worthy a heart

I’ve loved and lost before

With you it doesn’t matter if I gain or loose

Only that you own the key to my heart’s door

 

To please you I’d assign your name

To beautiful radiant flowers

I’d paint the moon pink

Shout “I Love You Sharon”

From the top of Lawson Tower

 

I may end up the fool

But that’s OK

Sometimes you need to listen to your heart

And let love lead the way

    Love is never wrong .... heartfelt I sympathize

    • Accidental Poet

      Thank you wischuett, she's been gone since 1971 and I always knew I'd never see her again. But the impression she left on me was strong enough for me to keep her in my heart always. Thanks for your comment.

    • myself and me

      Wow, lift the scar will always create fresh wounds. Only love could fill the big hole and seal the pain. Very touching poem.

      • Accidental Poet

        Thanks for your compliment, this poem is about the endurance of love. In September it will be 50 years.

        • Accidental Poet

          Yeah, now if I could only know her answers. Thanks for your comment.

          Do lost loves ever leave our heart? I think not, and that is the way it should be ... lost, but not forgotten, don't you agree? fine poem, A.P.

          • Accidental Poet

            Well, I definitely lost her and I'll never forget her, so yes I have to agree.

            • Accidental Poet

                Well done, ours is only 36 years in November, not bad though for a second marriage for both of us.
