We travel down life’s long winding path,

love lost from another in our aftermath,

like bombs erupting through the air,

we travel now without a single care.

–

Seeking that one place we cannot reach,

ignoring all that life is trying to teach,

we always find it just ahead beyond our grasp,

screaming with a voice that sounds so rasp.

–

We may touch that one thing we seek,

hold it for a moment and try to speak,

yet before the words flow from our lips,

it slips right through our fingertips.

–

To be loved by one as much as we can love but one,

this is the end of my journey and the beginning to some,

hear what the heart is screaming for and listen well,

else the end of your journey is a story you won’t tell.

–

Love that single special person like never before,

chase after them as they walk out that door,

overflowing you must make your heart pour,

lest you lose that love…forever more.
