It Came To Pass

My first loves name was Connie I'll confess that finally today At first I didn't know it until Beverly put us that way Connie was mean and nasty and to that I paid attention I don't think I liked her at first bur Beverly changed my oppinion I was friends with her mother who had a little house on Grey It was there that I spent most of my days Never mind suspisions it caught Beverlys gaze I've never been fast at picking up when girls would fall for me I never thought that she had fell But began to think like Beverly From there love became the biggest secret of mine I'd never tell anyone just kept it all inside Being in love was lonely Yet rejection I couldn't abide The fuel for that burning fire Low self esteem and pride It's funny that at this moment it tears me up inside After 40 years of hideing I'd finally comprimise Once I knew a widow who wasn't a widow long I was stunned by knowing her and thought that she was wrong Love is an immortal thing because of her I learned I won't say I miss her she's been gone for so long but I'd still take the last of our years with old age, canes and pensions
