I could have loved you!

A story of unrequited love.....
I do hope you like.......

I could have loved you.

I could have loved you,

I’ve seen naked beauty in

Your poetry

Like a calm night the sky -

Filled with stars

I’ve seen you naked.

I’ve felt your breath on my neck,

Heard the sweet words – imploring:

“You will take care won’t you?”

With such tenderness,

I could have loved you.

I’ve felt your loss – you’re hurt

That void deep inside

I feel it, the emptiness of

A lost love – time standing -

Still,

A fork in the road.

I could have loved you.

I could have loved you,

Had your Angels waited -

For us.

You shared you’re skies your

Moon,

I could have loved you.

I basked in your perfume

Seen dancing in your

Beautiful eyes

Imagined us making love all

Night long.

You -

Waking all shaky legged,

Me -

With that aching pearl in my

Loins,

I could have loved you.

I could have loved you,

Yet imagine your sad lonely

Eyes as the fates blow

A different wind - for another,

I could have loved you.
