Was I Right Or Wrong?

WAS I RIGHT OR WRONG?
FOR REFUSING TO GIVE UP WITH A FIGHT SO STRONG.

MY FIRST REQUEST FOR LOVE WAS DENIED.
OH WELL I TRIED.
BUT WITH THIS ROMANCE HERE EVERYTHING WAS APPLIED.
BY HER SIDE.
NEVER LIED.
SHE WAS HELD WHEN SHE CRIED.
YET SOFTLY & SLOWLY IM DYING INSIDE.

WHATS BEST FOR HER TO PROCEED TO THE NEXT LOVE OF HER LIFE.
WHATS BEST FOR ME FOR US TO BE HUSBAND AND WIFE.

WITH EACH DAY THAT PASSES BRINGS ME CLOSER TO DEATH.
IM A VICTIM OF CIRCUMSTANCES GOOD LOVE BAD HEALTH.

THESE NEXT FEW LINES ARE THE LAST IM TIRED & WEAK.
PLUS THE GRIMM REAPER IS HERE & ITS ME THAT HE SEEK.

THIS FEELING IM FEELING I FOUGHT STRONG.
WAITED LONG.
TO WANT HER BY MY SIDE TILL DEATH DID US PART WAS I RIGHT OR WRONG?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
