By Doc Watson

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

i once had a good friend Her name was Love we were a pair, we fitted well; i was the hand, and she, the glove she showed me new, wondrous emotions and made me king of my heart; she took me to breath-taking heights and promised that we'd never part with her, i went everywhere; when i talked of her, i swelled with pride i leaned on her, she was my shoulder i trusted her, she was my confidant and guide then one day, she held my hand and took me down this unknown track she sat me down and blinded me then walked away, and never came back Written April 2nd, 2002 © on Apr 01 2002 07:27 PM PST   0 • 1
