To Be Swept Off Your Feet Again

you meet someone and they sweep you off your feet
you start a romance which leads to a life together
you build a foundation of trust, love, hope for the future
you think that you will be with this love of your life for the rest of your life
that this love is completely irreplaceable
and then this love crumbles away everything
this entire future that was built upon our life together is stolen by your lies
everything that was, no longer is
so now you start over
you hope that someday someone will sweep you off your feet again
you hope that you will find that one that you can truly trust
that won't break your heart with lies
find that person that you will grow old forever with....

The time will come and you will find true love. Without lies and deceit. You'll even know when you meet him you want to share your life with in good and bad times. Grow old with - good luck. Like the way you are writing Kristy, well done. - Welcome to mine. oxox / / Anne-Lise :)
