Once In a Lifetime…

 

 

 

Once in a lifetime

I want to love with reckless abandon

Be consumed with passion

Travel to ends of the earth in search of her

I want the romance of it all to leave me heart broken

So I can immortalize her in poetry like poets of old

Then when all seems lost and love has seemingly abandoned me

My very next breath would be much too painful

The gods of love will have sent me an angel

Her touch will be life affirming

Her words will leave me believing

That love can still be found in a moment

Can last for a lifetime.
