I Loved

I have loved a boy
 when I was but a girl
I have loved a man twice my age
 when I was too young to know
I have loved a schemer
 when I was finding myself
I have loved my best friend
 when I needed to be one
I have loved a mechanic
 when I wanted to learn more
I have loved the nameless
 when I was unbalanced
I have loved and was married to a man for many years
 when I wanted to feel secure
I have loved a firefighter, an addict, the faceless, men of another skin,
I have loved the lost soul, an Indian cowboy, an army man
 All when I needed to, all an extension of myself
I have loved many, broken and whole
I loved them all with my heart and soul
But none of them have I loved so true
 or as deeply as I have loved you

  1. I truly don't have words to tell you how I feel about this. And, I want to know who. I love you so much.

A Love Lost

My love is worth more than the lack of effort you bring Once you've lost my love you will feel more than a sting You'll realize that...
