Love Poem: Hopefully Not

Hopefully Not

I let it slip away 
My first marriage...that is 
For reasons why 
Well, that's none of your biz

But I will tell you one thing 
I would do it again 
Just as sure as the ink flows 
From the point of my pen
  
I let it slip away 
My second marriage...to date 
Twice was enough 
Some of you can relate
 
Would I marry again 
Send out the alarm 
You know what they say 
"Three times is a charm" 

Will I let it slip away 
With the new women I had choose 
Truth, be it told
The lord only knows 

Hopefully not,
 
I loved her so 
I loved her so
 
I love her so...
