If only for a moment, I have  felt  true  love
And nothing can take that away, not even God above
If only for a moment, I have  felt  pure  joy
Not even all the pain in the world can destroy
If only for a moment, I can call you mine
Then that moment will have to last until the end of    time
If only for a moment, I've floated on a cloud
I will never  regret it, regret is not allowed
If only for a moment, you belong to me
Even though I know someday I'll have to set you free
If only for a moment, our souls are joined as one
That moment  will have  to last  until my breath is    done

Your poem speaks to the heart of those who have seen the beauty of love and the pain of having to let it go.  I loved it.

This kind of answers the age old question "Is it better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all?"  Your poem has helped me see things in a new light.  Thanks.  'Twas truly an excellent poem.  Good job.

STARR this is excellent  i love the part about no regrets...
reminds me of an OLD song...
"a little bit of love is better than no love, even a sad love is better than no love at all"

 ...every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.

every rhyme and verse...
your still here...like a beautiful curse.

Loved the poem, it was very passionate!

 "Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O,no! it is an ever-fixed mark....William Shakespeare
