My Southern Girl

Contributed by darkhorse71 on Tuesday, 16th August 2005 @ 11:06:21 AM in AEST
Topic: LostLove



My Southern Girl

She was a lonely southern girl
with sorrow deep in her eyes;
Instead of a loving relationship,
She ended up with his lies.

She was already with someone else
and love was a distant thought.
All she wanted was tenderness,
his fists and fury were all she caught.

Maybe by chance or maybe by fate,
we met and I knew right away
the reason I was put on this earth,
and that my heart would never stray.

The joy we shared was next to none,
it was something I never had known -
the passion, the peace, the serenity;
the love and trust we had grown.

Our souls became one, we watched them grow,
they never were meant to part.
As I gazed into angel eyes I knew,
I looked in her, I saw my heart.

I knew I found what most men don't -
a love that was destined to be.
The warmth of her body in my arms
was as warm as her heart within me.

Our hearts had joined and they made love,
giving birth to something so rare.
We had grown what we had known -
a love that none can compare.

It was the best of life for both of us,
but she had ghosts in her past;
she fought with them nearly every day,
but their pain was just too vast.

I believe in her and I believe in me,
and I believe in the love that we shared.
But now all I have are memories
And a heart that will never be spared.

Darkhorse71
john

Always sad when we have to let go of the one we love so dearly. I can feel the love you have for her in this very deeply.
Some people are in our lives for a while...as a friend, spouse, soulmate....which ever....for a reason....some stay around...some go eventually...but they are/been in your life for a purpose. Sometimes, its to help you thru the darkest times of your life...sometimes to guide you....and sometimes to teach you....there are so many several reasons why one is in your life.....Hold everyone you meet dear in your life, no matter the case.

Lovely written, nice flow......heart touching.
Love the lines :
I knew I found what most men don't -
a love that was destined to be.
So many people out there who do not know what they have..until they loose it but then its usually too late. I am glad you did see but I am sorry for the loss.

Huggssss,

Nats.

My you do write well. I think I sighed a time or two and wow, i'm quite impressed. I felt sadness, hope, despair, pain and so many other emotions--clear across the board.

Excellent!!! Truly.

What a tribute to all that was right.......so sorry that something went wrong. A man with an evil heart doesn't pour out words the way that you do......Love will find you and yes your heart will be spared, and repaired.....Thanks for sharing!

This is breathtakingly beautiful. Those that find love like that are truly blessed. We may lose it, but while it was there we were blessed.

Hugs,
Rita
