I know you don’t believe me For I told you all those lies. And that I gave you reason, To leave I realize.... But darling I still love you- Regret all those mistakes I’d like to start all over, If it is not too late. Won’t you take a minute To look into my eyes? The love which you will find in there May come as a surprise... I did you wrong, I can’t explain The motive or the cause- But when you said, “It’s over”. I knew what I had lost. If you leave me, darling- I just may not survive. I wonder if a part of it- Was being forty-five? Middle aged and crazy- It’s said go hand and hand... Can you find forgiveness- For this crazy man? If you can’t I understand- And blame you not at all. My folly, dear, has caused a lot Of bitter tears to fall. Do you think it’s possible To give it one more try? If you doubt my love, sweetheart- Just look into my eyes. [This message has been edited by Gunslinger (edited 12-06-1999).] |

No matter what our age, sometimes we don't fully appreciate what we have until we've lost it... well done! |

Slinger: Once again, another fine offering. I hope she see's the truth within. I bow to you and yours. |

Whether this was to a woman or that bull in Laramie, it's an excellent poem, gs.  |
