Did we meet by chance
To share a little romance
Could it be the hand of fate
Chose you for my mate
No one really knows for sure
Our love seemed so pure

Tainted by the test of time
This should have been our prime
Love is slowly slipping past
Have to end it here at last
Maybe it was experimental
And our meeting was merely accidental

Was it all a big mistake
If so don't tell me for my sake
Have to move on with my life
Could eventually be someone else's wife
Regret it has to be like this
Your smile is what I will miss

You could always make me laugh
With a wave of your magic staff
No idea good would turn to bad
After all the fun we've had
Things changed in a blink
Really made me stop and think

LW, excellent poem. . .

There are no accidents in life my friend, there are only things that we have the chance to learn from, and it seems that you are learning much. . .

Superb. . .

LoneWolf,
It's so easy to question why, and wonder the meaning behind things.  I've always been told that everything that happens happens for a reason, and that everyone you meet, no matter how brief, touches your life in some way or another - even if you don't realize it.  I know this person did that to you.  We're all questioning.

I really liked this.

Very nice poem.  A friend of mine once said he will search all his life looking for the answer to one question WHY?  and may very well never find an answer...

Sven, Thank you.  I have learned much and this person has touched my life in a way I will never forget.  I know our meeting was not an accident...it was fate.  I appreciate the reply.

Lori...I know it all happens for a reason, I do believe that.  This person did indeed touch my life in many ways.  Taught me an awful lot...about myself, love, and life.  For that I will always be grateful.  Thank you for the comments as always.

Kelly...Thank you and a part of me will always wonder why it had to be this way.

The feelings you expressed here are all to familiar to me. Don't spend too much time asking why, that question may have no answer.
