Time Ago

Time Ago

A Poem by Tate Morgan
"

When a young man I so loved you With heart and soul both bold and true

"






When a young man I so loved you

with heart and soul both bold yet true

The fates have come between us both

though my feelings still speak of you

 

This was a love without a ring

instead kept by the heart and kiss

That also didn't fall with time

nor with the childish loss of bliss

 

When love is tethered to the heart

possessed of happy devotion

The passing years will never dull

the height nor depth of that ocean

 

So it was as it should have been

this love bound only in spirit

Would not be shed of by the grave

nor by those who failed to hear it

Life the timeless healer has once again conquered all. As what was once a torrid tempest has become a minute squall. The Light that burns twice as bright lasts half as long!

So profoundly beautiful, expressed through the misted windows of time. You create such a longing for what was.. a reflection of love and life gone before... There is a rich depth in your words that connect us with such emotion. Wonderful write...truly.

this poem was great for few the words til death do us part are not said but nevr truer words could be use to describe such people in such deep love

A gift... to experience what you described above I guess. Something stronger than visable love....something deeper and more passionate...so beautifully put together.
Thank you very much for share.

I like this poem a lot. I believe the proof of true love is staying 50 years together to become one in heart and spirit. Poem is beautiful and a lot of wisdom in your words. Thank you.

The flow, the sentiment, the tenderness, the sorrow are all exquisite in this poem. I believe its the favorite of what I've read of your work so far. It's always wonderful when we can make our words cause someone to FEEL our own emotions. You've certainly done that here. Bravo!

So beautiful. The love and compassion leaps off the screen, emotion is dripping from every word. I am beyond words. Amazing. Just amazing.

Amazing write about a past love. . .

"This a love not held by a ring
Instead kept by the heart and kiss" :)

I do think in the first line, first stanza - "When a young man I so loved you"- "When" should be "As".
But overall, a very strong piece here. full of emotion and written well.
good job

I think this is quite the powerful read here.
Quite the write of undying love here.
Amazing write from your heart and soul.

Great sentiment of a past love.. an undying love that is full of bliss through memories.. a feeling of being untarnished.. untainted to the hypocrisy of marriage which of course we know in too many cases the vows CAN NOT be meant.. for we are all human.. bound to the errors of our ways! In youth so many run into marriage.. with fantastical high hopes of eternal love and sadly lacking the experience or tools sometimes to make it work.. making mistakes.. SO many mistakes are visible in this world!

We should lick or wounds when hurt and relish in that endeavor and learn from those mistakes.. wisdom comes from such dark places in life.. I loved what your writing brought out in me.. here you show love.. without symbolism.. without a ring.. just the pure, true and raw emotions! Marriage is indeed a dreamy endeavor.. but in reality alot of hard work.. Awesome.. and Roy Orbison great artist!
