Love Such Long Time Ago

Love…Such Long Time Ago Summers I dream of you and I say to myself if I had played my cards right my life would have taken another, path, only I don´t play cards and love has nothing to do with poker, you can´t win in love even if you have aces. It takes commitment, honesty and no fear of passing rejection. I wanted to take you to USA, drive through the states an make love to you in everyone and I would kiss your beautiful body, inhale your fragrance and not worry about tomorrow. I had the air ticket and money, Florida the first objective, but you were so impossible beautiful and I could not cope if you said no; and if you had said yes, how would I cope with your loveliness? I feared that on our journey you would find a bloke who could dance, leave let me continue a boundless journey through the USA. I would not know how to get home cause you are cleverer than me and knew how to read a map… my map was love for you, sometimes, that is not enough. My love is infinite and as it is it will continue this way … a dream and children I never had. I ask: forgive my timid heart and let me sleep.

Sweet regret. "I feared... you would find a bloke who could dance" and too soon for GPS. Actually, many a time my husband did say "let me sleep." With all the charming humor the message comes through. Grab that golden ring. love, Kathy
