Someday I thought to have time for love When a home built by two hands was completed When work brought forth the luxury a woman loved should be adorned in When power was reached in a cut-throat world to place her where she should be And now, I sit in my quiet home as elegant as every dream I own but just as lonely in my realization having waited too long for love |

Mark, may I echo all the JM has said and add, please, surely it is never too late for love, it feels that way for me, as well, but I'm hoping it can come and find with me a place to dwell. But, alas, I see the old saying, "the best laid plans of mice and men. |

And as we run the race we oft find the finish anticlimatic for the pace Enjoyed the read..and while I disagree that it is too late for anything.... the message was well delivered |

Welcome Mark, very sincere poem from the heart, but I think in time you will find love and it will have been worth the wait, though it may seem like an eternity now. I wish you the best in your endeavors. |

Welcome to Passions! I liked how you handled these thoughts very much! Sad but realistic! The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up |

While time indeed waits fr no oone, it also denys no opportunity. And it recognizes itself only as the present-seek to find. |
