Love's Rhyme
The roof I see has fallen in …
The window panes all broke
But I know between its’ walls
‘t was Love inside we spoke
Its’ paint is cracked and faded
It’s foundation is askew
But … doesn’t match my memory
Of when our love was new
Within its’ walls time stood still
When I looked upon your face
But …Time and fate took its’ toll
And our fall away from grace.
The house will never see repair
And Time will not re-wind
And so I must recall
Former visions of my mind
We both have since found others
With whom to spend our time
Now we but remember:
Once we shared Love’s Rhyme
