Love Affair

Love Affair

You came from my past, into my present but will never my future be..
You brought joy with pain, tears with laughter, oh - the memories..

I felt love when I heard your voice.
I felt guilt when I had to make a choice!
How could I not embrace what I once lost..
A passionate love affair! But at what cost?

I couldn’t breathe, my heart stopped beating.
My love, my life, is this really happening?
An unending road once travelled..
Desirous feelings are now revealed!

The love I feel for you was buried but not dead,
Kept safe in an aching heart, not fed!
This feeling of pure luminous pleasure..
Like a bitter pirate to undiscovered treasure!

You came from my past, into my present but will never my future be..
Thank you for the joy with pain, tears with laughter, oh - the memories..
