Kevin Clark Poet Rhyme

Our Love Could Have Been An Eternity

As time shakes its evil hand toward me

I know the extent and drop a sorrowful tear for thee

I awaken in the future from a wonderful dream

I call for one last moment with you but the fleeting sands wont deem

My heart drops as I wearily look to the past

Hoping the hands of the hour will make the memory last

To give you and I one perpetual last chance

But the grandfather clock has done its final dance

As I sit and stare at fates face always unkind

Forever clinging to a far hopes key rewind

Learning the pain of being trapped in a moment

The ticks grow louder in the reality of the present

The seasons have turned and changed and I can see

Knowing the age of our love could have been an eternity

Elizabeth Wesley January 25, 2012 at 5:55 PM So enjoyed this great poem Kevin. You used so many wonderful lines - clock has done its final dance - is just one of these. It also is full of regret for what could have been. Really nice one! :) Kevin Clark January 25, 2012 at 6:06 PM Hi Elizabeth so nice to hear from you. Thanks for your comments.
