You come to me because you say you need me. <br />I come because I cannot stay away. <br />You weep with me because our love was thwarted. <br />I weep with you because you cannot stay. <br /> <br />You say with me you can escape reality. <br />For me what's real is I die more each day. <br />Our thoughts are deep and life has so much meaning: <br />A life of pain that grows more so each day. <br /> <br />Sometimes we laugh because it seems so crazy. <br />Sometimes we cry because we know it's true. <br />The time was right, the place was wrong, but darling, <br />There'll never be another, only you. <br /> <br />Our dreams of love were pure as mountain water. <br />God, how we had to fight to keep them so. <br />Each night we pass, and dreaming while we slumber, <br />Of something just too sweet to let it go. <br /> <br />When in our dreams we touch, and touching, knowing - <br />Our love is one that never can fulfill <br />The promise that was forged from instant longing, <br />The moment that our eyes met, deep and still. <br /> <br />We have to find some way to cool our passion. <br />We have to find some way to stay apart. <br />We'll never find a way to disentangle <br />Our melding to a single soul and heart.<br /><br />James Walter Orr<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/right-love-wrong-time/
