Love Story

A Middle-Aged Love Story  

Both were in their late forties when they met he had a good job 
chief of something important in the world of oil exploration and 
they fell in love holding hands and kissing so much they needed
treatment for sore lips. 
He grew tall, and she swayed like a palm tree in a tropical breeze 
this was love they both been married before and felt like the god 
of amour`s arrow had shot them again painless they thought.
She had grown children he had none when he was 52 the mortality 
knocked on the door he wanted a son she could give him none.
There was young woman nearby and when his wife was visiting her
he fell on the threshold of her door into her arms, and she became 
pregnant, a love story came to a screeching halt.
 The woman he loved left, but he had a son with woman he didn`t
 care for, he found salvation in work she – the woman he loved-
 lived with her mother in Cote de Azure stuck with an arrow stuck in her
 a heart that no other man could remove.
Then a knock on her door, he stood there with his child of, she could not 
resist and forgave him loved his child too and they both lived long and
 when full of years were blessed with a beautiful death.
