All the poems of love we’ve found,
All the poems of love we’ve lost…
Makes a fool like me to wonder,
Why does it come at such a cost?

Amid the heartache,
Amid the tears…
Is this really what life is about-
Searching for all these years?

Make each moment special,
Live life with no regrets…
Is this the smartest thing to do?
Placing all your bets?

What makes him so special?
Why must I love him so?
Is there someone else out there,
Will I ever know?

Will something in my heart tell me,
That I need to search no more?
Will I ever feel he loves me, too?
Will I ever know for sure?

Playing all these silly games,
Am I just wasting time?
Maybe instead of searching for love,
I’ll just search for words that rhyme….

(Hee, hee – just threw that last part in there for fun! )

BlueEyes - this one deserves another go around. When we search hard for it, it doesn't seem to happen, but when one doesn't look, my, my, what can happen....

Blue Eyes,
tis true though whether we are happy in love or miserable because of love it seems we must write about it.
Kethry

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
