You gripped my heart with passion's fire <br />You filled my soul with true desire, <br />The first time that our eyes did meet <br />I felt my life was so complete, <br />I kissed your lips a sad farewell <br />Now always in my mind you dwell, <br />For all the years I've left to live <br />The last kiss I shall ever give. <br /> <br />You made the light within me shine <br />You swore you'd be forever mine, <br />Back then we both did not foresee <br />How dreams would never come to be, <br />I kissed your lips and you did leave <br />And now for you each day I grieve, <br />For all the years I've left to live <br />The last kiss I shall ever give. <br /> <br />You told me you would not return <br />You left me cold yet still I yearn, <br />To share again the life we led <br />But hopes of that are lying dead, <br />I kissed your lips my tears did flow <br />I never wanted you to go, <br />For all the years I've left to live <br />The last kiss I shall ever give.<br /><br />ANDREW BLAKEMORE<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-last-kiss-i-shall-ever-give/
