Cold Cold Heart

My lonely soul forever stirred deeply within this pen, within this ink Oh I will of words write of a love spurred. I wish of stimulus, a heavenly link words of which I beseech one to say deeply within his pen, within this ink. This flame here within my soul perceived the congealed chill of your mind that to condemn a virgin love, one you stole. Many there is who tell of love so blind yet I in your love was confused perceived the congealed chill of your mind. A one night stand for your amusement innocence of one never before loved your mission a life time assignment. Alas like the wind that onward blows my lonely soul forever stirred one day you will reap what now sows oh I will of words write of a love spurred.

Great poem, Harry. Love is never 100 percent guaranteed. Takes sacrifice, blood sweet and tears, but...there is so much beautiful as well! Who could live without it...Tying the knot can be a blessing as well

We need to be a fool now and then. We tied our knot in '66 and I'm sure there are times she'd like to tie another one (around my throat).
