Note: Somebody asked me this question recently and so I answer In Love Or Not In Love I heard real love comes only once in a lifetime. Perhaps I've already missed that chance, Yet perhaps I'm still waiting For my heart to response to another smile. I thought I found that someone that I loved. He was honest and kind in heart, Yet something in my heart told me it wasn't right, Like eating ice-cream with a knife. Yet I went ahead and thought I was in love, Somehow being with him I was happy. Still I was always reminded In values we stood on each end of the pole. At the end I thought I didn’t deserve him, and I left. At the end I thought I deserve better still, The one that I give my whole heart, The one who values the thing I hold dear. So tonight when you asked me Who did I love, or whose heart got mine, I said frankly I never knew love, Yet to pick one from all men I knew, I would pick him, yes him, The one I first opened up to. No, it wasn't my first boyfriend. It was farther back then, I was only in grade ten, Didn’t know that was called puppy love. Because of him I argued with my parents. My parents saw him through but I didn’t. They hated me to do things with him. I remembered when I went high school prom With him, my father was so mad That he swore not to talk with me again. Now I think back, I was silly. I was nothing to him, and time made no changes. I am nothing to him, yet it doesn’t matter anymore. He hurt me once, but only once. ©May 30, 2003 Eliza Simmons Eliza Simmons |

Eliza~ I thought about your signature line when I read this ... I sort of transposed that thought to 'Yesterday's loss ... tomorrow's gain'~ 'I heard real love comes only once in a lifetime' Oh, hon ... I'm here to tell you that fortunately real love comes many, many times in a lifetime~ While we all remember 'first love' ... hopefully, there will never be a 'last love'~ The heart has rooms to contain the love of many~ someone will touch your heart with loving grace You will remember then that what I say is true Somewhere in the heart of another there is a room for you~ *Huglets* sweet poetess~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Interesting flow of thoughts... I believe that love is a process of caring in which we can build a foundation for love...love or a desire to love can flow without it being our one true love...I wouldn't want to be laying on my death bed sad that I had never loved someone because I did or didn't find the one I considered my one true love or the one I could spend my whole life with...James |
