Younger Woman Older Man

She's so young and beautiful.
What she see's in me I'll never know.
She makes me feel at least ten years younger.
My body and spirit are aglow.
Our lives will go on.
She'll go her way.
I'll go mine.
It hurts me
to know we'll
only share brief
moments of
time.

Sometimes you only get a few minutes even when you have the same calendar birthdate.
Enjoy the time, don't worry about the time.

Hello James

The moments may only be brief but they will become cherished memories for you to keep.

Take care.....Sue

I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Ah......I've got happy news for you, James! Sometimes she doesn't leave!!  Music Maker is 12 years older than me, and I don't even think about it....when you love somebody, it doesn't matter what their age is. The other thing is, if you worry too much about it, negative things can happen, and you can almost project the person leaving. So, cheer up, and just love her, and she'll stay because she loves you!

Pen how you truly feel...
it is a safety-valve for the soul!

Nicely put.
I understand
and I say
don't lament it now
enjoy it while you can

Gary tells me all he time that "age is just a number".........After  almost 5 years of us being in love, I'm beginning to believe him........
It's the "in love" that makes the age-difference just disappear....I know...

Ah but in those brief moments of time she gave you back those ten years. What to do with them..
