Love,

Love in my life

Love of my life

Watched you walk out of my life

Taking heart strings one at a time

One with each stride

Love! That wonderful thing

Left me orphan

Without a home in you

Love,

Love in my life

Once more

Love of my life

I gave my heart thrice

Because you were nice

Now it’s all ice

Leveling my soul

I have turned cold

Here I am again

Loving this man

Pledging life to the end

Love teaches you to let go

Hold out

Be alone,

But it also teaches me

Bliss and sweet serenity!

So here I am

Holding out

My hand,

Loving this man

Waiting to be

Your baby Grand

With keys to be plucked

And strummed by you

I’m back in the classroom

Of love

This time as gentle and meek

As a dove

Hoping the lesson will change

Because life and attitude

Has been rearranged.

Sitting in Love’s classroom

I’ve finally figured the lesson out:

Hearts never learn lessons,

It’s the mind that doubts!
