Destined To Love

by Walter   May 17, 2022


Sometimes love will test its spell
Between two that aren't known well
Even when one is involved
Although her love has long dissolved

Depressed she might be of neglect
But somehow this she'll just accept
And thinks all love will turn this way
Committed the reason why she'll stay

Although love might seem a plight
One day she met her own true knight
A stranger that was passing by
In no time that he caught her eye

An awkward pause and then hello
Feelings that would start to flow
And soon these two walked side by side
With all emotions it implied

As time would pass that guilt set in
She felt as though she would not win
The path they paired had gone quite far
But sensed as though her heart would scar

Although this journey brought them near
A broken heart she could not endure
Even though it seemed so much they shared
She'd stop and then to him declared

"I'm sorry, but this can't go on
And I know what I've done is wrong
But there are things I should admit
With reasons why I can't commit"

This made him sad and so confused
And feeling like he had been used
With a tear forming in his eye
These chosen words he would reply

"I thought that we were something strong
That we both felt like we belong
From the time we met on that first day
Why did you lead me astray?"

She had to think before she spoke
And feeling like her heart had broke
She couldn't stop the tears that fell
From ending such a charming spell

"I'm with a man I shared my life
We married young, I became his wife
But love just seemed to disappear
And I longed so much to have it near"

Now is this all wrong, what she has done?
Should she stay or should she run?
Is love deserved when it's not true?
It makes me wonder what you'd do?
