Caustically Came the Cruelty

caustcallycame th cruelt It started with an up and ended with a down It began with a smile and ended with a frown The up was my finding love at last The down was her becoming part of my past She smiled I began smiling I was beguiled because she was beguiling Like a little child on Christmas morning When doves and daydreams are dawning And magic is in the air With ribbons and flair in a youth’s fair hair Love had found me in a special place Where hearts and thoughts begin to race And fantasies take flight with a lift from delight And even the darkness of night seems bright But fantasies often fade in the shadow of sorrow When the teeth of today bite the rear end of tomorrow It began with happiness but ended in tears It started with hope but finished with fears The fear of forever without the love of my dreams Because love isn’t always so wondrous as it seems © 2012…copyright PHREEPOETREE..~free cee!~
