Looking Back, I See That Was Hardest Blow

Looking Back, I See That Was Hardest Blow Cool waves flow across gentle waters blue clouds and sky above, remind me of you. In sweet dreams you memory haunts me still once I loved you true and I always will. In dreams, I see you in that soft blue dress joy the nights, I recall your sweet caress. I pray for your happiness in this life my great mistake, not making you my wife. That Fall, your family moved you away was when my entire world turned ashen grey Looking back, I see that was hardest blow we not having, all we were meant to know. Destiny oft is cruel and awful thing with sad changes such misery can bring. Your love-letters sent, each tear stain enhanced we knew, we had each been truly romanced. Cool waves flow across gentle waters blue clouds and sky above, remind me of you. In sweet dreams you memory haunts me still once I loved you true and I always will. Robert J. Lindley, RHYME, ( One Of Life's Hardest Blows)

Love is the hardest blow. Silly and shallow yet it is life's hardest blow. You say it perfectly in your words here Robert.

Great title, there are many hard blows Robert, and normally the ones that cause a broken heart are always the most difficult.. You expressed it deeply as always..
