Sad Morning Wednesday

i loved once in my life, once not enough
its was an extravagant feeling 
not so unlike the joy of the rain on drought soaked country

i loved once in my life, life has given me so much
it filled my time with action and consequence
i so loved how it did with no regret

i loved once in my life, it allows my sorrow 
how do i bury thee unfinished
i call for you on every breath
i know you're there

i loved once in my life, i was not so young
i follow my old peoples path along the rivers edge 
never have i searched, long though i have found

i loved once in my life, age has no concept of feeling
let me be in my love
