Sometimes I wonder just where I would be <br />If, on that April night, I'd ne'er met you <br />And, if, my dear, you had never met me <br />And we'd never known the love that we knew <br /> <br />Is it really true, as the old phrase goes <br />That it is better to loved and lost <br />Than that love to have never have had known <br />Was the experience worth the cost <br /> <br />What, if on that May evening, long ago <br />I had just walked away and ne'er looked back <br />Never had caressed your skin, white as snow <br />If I had never loved, would I have lacked <br /> <br />Dear, I often wonder where I would be <br />If I ne'er loved you and you ne'er loved me <br /> <br />((June 13th,2009))<br /><br />Danny Speicher<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-i-ne-er-loved-you/
