Lost In Your Eyes


The day we met
You captured my heart
My broken past
With you, i have a new start

We dated some time
Our love made a stance
I was lost in your eyes
Boyfriend, girlfriend romance

We wined and dined
Danced and kissed
Even discussed 
Our future exist
 
We got engaged
Eventually married
Four children we had
You blossomed and carried

We watched them grow
Into fine young souls
Our future want
Parental goals

But where have we been
Where did we go
Our evaporation
Disappearing afterglow

It feels like our hearts
Have said their last goodbye's
For now i feel
Lost in your eyes

Very sad. Too bad no one gets to learn of the possibility that these days will com. Perhaps if we did none of us would get married (smile) Peace, Audrey

Thank you for your warm comments on my poem. And your poem. . . the sadness of loss like a sad refrain, lingers long after reading it.

We do sometimes forget why we fell in love when living life and children take over for so many years, I hope that you can find yourself in those eyes again, Highlander! Beautifully written! ~Trudy~

This is so sad, James, and it comes straight from your loving, romantic heart. It is very difficult to cope with feeling "lost" in the eyes of someone you loved. Beautifully written! Love you, Carolyn

You are still there. It takes getting back to the dating years to renew the romance. I hope this is just a poem about this topic. Keep writing. Sara

James, "Love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage." That phrase has truth. The horse and carriage carry the family along its way. But, if either the horse or carriage choses to go in a different direction, there is a tug of war that can break the connection and might even snap. Forever ending the pleasant ride. But, if they decided, together, to compromise, looking through love's eyes, again, the planned destination, can be reached. Good happens when love tries. Great write.
