Until You

I never knew life could be so full of pain, until I met the man who made me complete. Now only memories of love shall remain. The minute he swept me off my cold feet, I knew life just would never be the same. He’s given me true passion o, so sweet. When he’s around my romance cannot tame, for this is why I was born to love but one. He is my burning ember lighted flame. When we were young we birthed a sickly son, he was too weak to live on earth; he died. Then Ella came and life had just begun. When Karen had committed suicide, he vowed to always be there for just me. So many nights he held me as I cried. When I feel like a weeping willow tree, he is my stardust falling from the sky- he is the miracle that made me see. For I am but a woman who can’t lie, a girl who craves adoring days that shine. I promise I shan’t ever say goodbye. God always knew that He would make you mine- When he encompassed us in love’s design. April 5, 2019 Quirky Tercets Contest Nina Parmenter
