Michael J. Murphy Poet Dramatic Verse

Then Came Love So Hard To Close

Looking past the many doors I have entered
Never there was one so hard to shut 

Then came love so hard to close.

I never thought it would be this way 
Her heart was kind and ever so dear

Then came love so hard to close.

Once we shared the little things
Together we sat and ever so near

Then came love so hard to close.

We bared the labors of our youth
Created a life that we did so share

Then came love so hard to close.

The better or worse came in the night
It darkened our lives and set us apart.

Then came love so hard to close.

We built walls between us to quiet our life
Designed doors for keeps to secure our stay

Then came love so hard to close.
