Eternal This Love
"I dedicate this love poem to my
one true love and eternal Valentine."
Quote - by Constance
The day I first saw you my whole life changed,
my world went spinning out of control;
and was I falling in the blue ocean of your eyes,
then, you spoke and it was musical.
I felt like I could not speak any sense,
like if I did, you would disappear suddenly;
but you didn't and I could and how we spoke,
in moments it was an instant love.
A whirlwind romance and I said yes, yes,
you were everything that I had dreamed of;
my prince charming, my one and only true love,
we were looking forward to life.
Then, everything shattered for me,
my true love was gone from this world;
and I stood at his grave with a red rose,
I was like a stone cemetery statue.
Years have passed and I go to his grave,
even in the falling snow, I go to find him;
even in the rain, and wind, and swirling leaves,
and I will go till my last breath for love's sake.
