The first time their sight touched <br />Their stare was deep and full of lust <br />Two people fell in love that night <br />Into her dark lonely heart his love brought light <br /> <br />She was poor, an old maid <br />A loveless widow whos love did fade <br />She'd lost her first love in a crash <br />His ghostly figure haunted her mind, then disapeared in a flash <br /> <br />A man of sorrow, a man of pride <br />A man of mystery whos sole had died <br />He left behind his true love in his youth <br />He never showed loniness, with bitterness he hid the truth <br /> <br />Two people brough togeather in later life <br />He lifted her vail, she became his wife <br />Love brought them togeather and turned wrong to right <br />Each others lives they'd saved that venturous night<br /><br />Natasha Browne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-second-chance-2/
