I found you when I had no one to turn too,

When all around me was bleak and in dark hues.

When I thought I couldn’t go on with my life,

When he already took someone to be his loving wife.

I found you unexpectedly and you caught me unaware,

I thought you said that I should beware.

That I shouldn’t let my feelings get the better of me,

That I should use my eyes to truly see.

Life is unfair…He thought me that,

I’ll remember that always no matter what.

Life gives you what you deserve…you once said,

Not all are bed of roses; some are “nail beds”

Now I’m beginning to like you more than just a friend,

Will you walk with me towards life’s end?

Will you hold my hand through the fire and storm?

Will you offer your shoulders when I mourn?

Life dealt me with questions beyond comprehension,

It gave me distress, it gave me apprehension.

To jump into something that was not there on the first place.

I’ tired of the labyrinth; I’m tired of the race.

Now that I found you, would you ever wish to go?

Would you leave me behind without a say so?

Would I again start picking up the pieces of my broken heart?
