I uncovered his shoulders
as he laid chest down in bed
and I on my side
I watched his bare back
fall and rise
then I kissed his neck
the morning light reassured me
that I didn’t sin
I ran my fingers down his tanned flawless skin
the gentle sprinkles of warm rain on the beach last night
made making love feel so right
he married me that night
it wasn’t planed
no family
no friends
no church
no preacher
just me and him
no rings
no wine
he said his vows then I said mine
young love lost in the sands of time
at lest for one night
young love of 15
exchanging life
exchanging feelings
some things last for ever
becuz’ we stayed together
never legally married
but children we raised
83 and alone now
he died
but that’s ok
becuz’ now it’s my time
married at 15
children at 25
died at 83
and loved and enjoyed every second of my life
I closed my eyes
though times did get rough
now that I reflect
I can’t remember one
all I can remember is that night
and the laughter of my children
as I tried to bring them up right
to live their own wonderful lives
cuz’ all it takes to be happy is YOU
your point of view
you can let your worries overwhelm you and die
or you can trust God to help you and have eternal life
IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU
LET IT!

| This was beautiful, and it is what I want (exept for the kids, but that's my thing). |

I think this is brilliant poem and how it floads!!!
There is only one thing I feel there is one thing that could make it even better...
because you say this brilliant sentence:
"cuz’ all it takes to be happy is YOU"
then you can skip the part "Let it!" in the end and just keep it open to the reader.
Just an idea!
But I like it very much! |
