Love Poem: Always In My Heart

Always In My Heart

I met him while walking,
   and the coffee shop-  soon we were talking.
He was a friendly man,
and our friendship began.
On nice days we ran,
   while running he listened-  I was babbling.

Telling my life story,
   he was older but handsome and brainy.
A storyteller too,
we fit like an old shoe.
His blue eyes were see-through,
   in those eyes I saw a soul of beauty.

And soon we were holding hands,
   our new relationship had no demands.
I just accepted love,
and saw red hearts above.
I was his ladylove,
   he kissed me-  I wanted to do headstands.

Then, he told me something,
   his job was moving- come with me darling.
I was sad and broken,
filled with dark depression.
Could I, my own life shun,
   when we meet-  my heart is left bleeding.
