The Love I Once Had

Smelling his cologne in my room
thinking about how I use to make love to you
staring at his picture and it made me feel
that love was so real and true
Now, I have to live without you

The love I once had It was so good
that it was clear and understood 
when I was near you it felt so cool
to be in love with you

Why is so hard to get pass this?
you were the love of my life and I like it
then a expiration date show its face
and you will never return to your place
Now, what I am suppose to do without you

The love I once had It was so good
that it was clear and understood 
when I was near you it felt so cool
to be in love with you

Can anyone tell how long this will last?
I'm hurting so bad that I think I will go mad
Please! Can someone help me so I can live 
I want the pain to go away, so I can feel
the love like I, once had with him

The love I once had It was so good
that it was clear and understood 
when I was near you it felt so cool
to be in love with you

He always said to me, if his love doesn’t last for long, 
go on and live like nothing happen
how can I do that, when his love was fantastic 
and then you went up above and that’s long lasting

The love I once had It was so good
that it was clear and understood 
when I was near you it felt so cool
to be in love with you

The love I once had was sweet like assorted candy
Just like our emotions and it felt so good, it was like we took a potion 
Now, its hard to continue life in the motions because God has chosen, 
the love I once had

You know everyone must decide whether to accept the softer, gentler, longer lasting and sometimes infinite love of a true friend over what often...often is no more than chemistry to procreat, passion, lust..the intensity of the latter is LIKE A DRUG. Occasionally, we find passion and friendship together but it is so hard to tell! If we could tell that is the person to stay with forever. [Everytime I see your name I miss my mother Maxine [she has passed on] You keep learning those forms! L & L
