Once In Every Life ღ KKD ღ

Once In Every Life Its so hard to know what is within my battered heart but one thing is certain I only miss what was at our start You were that Knight shining upon a horse of white Together... days were filled with sunshine Separated... Oh how lonely the night You will never know a greater joy You will never know a like love for I gave to you what was sent from above Why our paths crossed Well only He can know but the openness you saw I will never again show Life's gold ring I tried to capture Yes, I took the chance But it was not meant for me to dance this dance What life lesson I was to learn Well I'm really not sure But I do know what was given to you was pure Your inability to accept and to return I do honestly pray upon your soul will never burn I pray you never miss the love you so abused I pray you never hear the words to me you have used You listened to one you thought you could trust but can you not see the happiness in their loveless marriage they so lust It is said misery loves company in this I do believe Too bad you were not man enough for your own life to lead My heart will heal My life I will reclaim and find a greater love Can you even hope for the same Tonight this chapter of my life comes to end I refuse to waste another moment on one that couldn't be lover or friend The love I gave to you You returned with painful strife The love I had for you comes but Once In Every Life ღ KKD ღ Original by Donna DeLong Matthews October 2007 It Was Almost Like A Song Ronnie Milsap View All My Poems © 2008 Donna DeLong Matthews (All rights reserved)

So much feeling and emotion, sad yet somehow so pure. A wonderful write, you have such a talent with the pen, you paint such beatiful pictures and the adding of the music that goes so well with what you are saying is just amazing. The only problem I had was reading the small writing as these old eyes don't see as well as they used too. Great job, once again. Congrats. ;)
