There was a time…. <br /> <br />There was a time when nothing rhymed <br />Unspoken words inside my mind <br />And haunting tunes buried within <br />Pointless thoughts were my chagrin <br /> <br />And so she passed from real to dream <br />From what once was, to fantasy <br />Some things in life, they slip away <br />From shining white they fade to grey. <br /> <br />Then all those years of pointless grief <br />Were washed away, like fallen leaves <br />She found me there, and loved me still <br />One destiny, ours to fulfil <br /> <br />And now it seems my rhymes come free <br />And words appear so easily <br />Those tunes once buried and concealed <br />Are yours to own my heart revealed <br /> <br />I have a choice, I have a chance <br />I found my girl, I have romance <br />Two hearts entwined, two souls as one <br />Two journeys end and one begun<br /><br />Stephen Holland<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/there-was-a-time-12/
