Never Fear
A lifetime of love in the wink of an eye
I can feel slipping by
Nothing left for me to do
But feel the pain inside of you
If but a second I could trade
The memory of kisses shall never fade
With that second what I would do
One last kiss received from you
But for now sweet friend of mine
I must settle in to do my time
Love is the final test
I beg of you please do your best
Shed not a single tear
For in love memories dear
Our bodies they can place apart
But souls stay held together by the hearts
In the hearts held so dear
Mine is yours never fear
When I left home one day
my wife and I were fighting
because she did not want me
to go. I didn't kiss her by.
The police had a road block
set up for me and I went back
to prison.I had just Paroled 12
days before.The pain of that
missed kiss bore deep into my
soul for the next eighteen
months. I wrote this poem as
soon as I got to High Desert
State Prison. This is a pain
I will never feel this pain
again. I will also never go
against my wifes wishes again.
Thank You
