My Angel Renee

Each night when I go to bed I think of all the words I've said And ponder on the things I've done How your love I had once won Many tears I've made you shed Too many sleepless nights in your bed When all along I owned the key To keep your love for only me Now its me that sheds the tears My life now full of empty fears You say uncertainty prevailing Caught up in all my mistakes and failings My love for you has never faded Lack of commitment, your feelings jaded Baby steps, I moved too slow I did that because I love you so I wanted for us the best of life, Messy details, cleaned before you became my wife Now lost you are, trying to find you way My mind consumed, what to do, what to say Now is the time to use our voice Together or separated, its your choice I am beside you, can you see You are the only one for me The love we shared, captured all my desires Burned hotter than the devils fires So my Angel we both must try To grow our love, not let it die.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Richard, if this is the present, then I hope things work out for you and the one you love. If this is the past and did not last I am horrible sorry. I once walked the path you are on...I wish you a rainbow with all my heart because the sunlight comes after the rain. Just Ed
