A Once In A Lifetime Love (Poem)

There is a love that one never gets over
No matter how many others are to follow;
And although the hearts may take different paths,
Each new road inevitably proves to be hollow.

As the years go by their lives go on,
But the light within them becomes more stale;
And no matter how long they search for new love,
The happiness is but a shadow pale.

But the connection cannot be constrained forever,
The love that had endured for years unspoken,
Soon the recognition will come to awaken afresh,
That the bond once made can never be broken..

Finally the hearts seek one another again,
For each life is incomplete without the other;
And no matter how far they have drifted apart,
The connection will bring them together as lovers.

There can be no greater joy in our lives,
Than the bond that comes from our love again found;
And all of the suffering we both have endured
Has been worth the promise that our love will abound!

Good job, Christine. I can tell this came from your heart.

Keep up the good work. Don't forget to proof out loud. Sometimes I forget. It really helps!

Another gem.Loved this poem and i agree with you even if lovers part ways, love doesn't die. It may lie dormant but remains there forever.
