We Had a Love

I gaze upward at the rich blue sky sun blazing brightly in the vastness. Madness has loomed over doomed memories playing all round watching replay over and over. If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah We had a love, a love, a love you don't find every day I never felt such love for another, warm love all around we had none other. I deserve happiness and the love of a man who would cherish all of me. If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah We had a love, a love, a love you don't find everyday Sadness clog my throat, taking more than I'm willing to give. My heart shattered, whatever love we had between us is fading. The anguish to great, to raw leaving a scar that will never heal but stripped away. If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah We had a love, a love, a love you don't find everyday 6/15/2018 You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' by Cilla Black Poetry Contest: Grens Evergreens # 4 Cilla Black Sponsored By: Teppo Gren

Wonderful and touching poem Eve. I love the Little Chorus Line in there it adds such a a steady Rhythm to this beautiful piece. So sad for anyone in this situation to miss out on such a wonderful joy in life. I pray for all those in theis situation that God May restore their relationship. Take care and God bless Eve.
