My Romance

A night full of romance with candles and with wine
Changed my mind forever about love with another guy
Abuse by one who loved me or at least that claim was made
Caused my heart to turn to stone and each time walked away

The romance felt was special in a way never received
From this man I had dinner with new feelings were conceived
Oh how my heart missed romance and feel of another’s touch
This time I will enjoy it without the need to rush

My days are now spent in joy with the one I have grown to love
Such a special bond and friendship we have in our souls
To think that one fool’s actions almost caused my heart’s demise
Then I would not be here standing as a beautiful blushing bride
