For there was a time Long forgotten and lost My heart once beat with love Simple. Really. And yet so naive I took for granted that time She was the dream of my soul Every bit a wonder of light and beauty I was lost in her world and she guided a young naive boy down a path of magic and excitement I spun with happiness and loved her even more I never knew such a world existed outside my own I lapped up every new experience and adventure I was a traveler on a journey I knew no path and drifted in her wake She was a wonder and dream I knew nothing I drank fully from a soul and fear I provided no nourishment in return I never lied to her I never misled or denied Yet we parted Lost without a path for my journey was but to follow I stumbled and fell Years past by and though I tried I found no one sparked the magic I once knew Darkness consumed me and the spark faded A dying ember Stoked to life for a very brief moment A ring. A single piece of sparkle I wanted so much to bend the knee But feared the rejection I knew would come We shared a night of love only a few days prior meaning more for me than her And yet I believe a gift was seeded The wonder would be a new life A gift to her and for her a savior A man to take upon his shoulders a lifetime that would be a journey similar to me but yet new Following in her wake
