Story Of Love Poem by Casandra Assy

I paid my dues, time and time again. For the crimes I've committed, I've done my sentence. Bad mistakes, I've had those too, and it caused me to question who I wanna be? When I reached for those stars, without the wings to take me that far, I lived each day in a helpless dark. And then finally, finally the world opened up to me, and the sun began to shine. And suddenly, that thing that I thought was only in fairy tales, oh with that first hello, and that sweet gentle smile.
I suddenly had a crystal vision, one I kept to myself. But oh how I wrapped it around my dreams, how I wrapped him around my dreams.
They say that thunder only happens when its raining, but when that rain washes you clean you'll know, you'll know of a earth shattering emotion so deep within that you don't recognize it. I never did promise a bed of roses, or the moon, and the stars, the sun, the ocean like other woman did, but he, this guy that changed who I am, saw right through me. And my heart, my God my heart.
That thudded to a melody that he gave, ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom. But still I held my cards close to my chest, with my heart still being put to the test. he knocked me off my feet, he somehow made me feel complete. So there I was, a life with new meaning, cause when I awoke, suddenly I was in love. Suddenly there was beauty everywhere including in his eyes.
he made me see there was something missing in my life, he became the end to my every beginning, somehow he is the best thing I never knew I needed.
It was a challenge againt the human race, but I promised myself to keep on the fight till the end, and it was one moment when his hand was in mine, and another when it was not. And then the emptiness filled, and the skies greyed, cause the sun, it didn't shine today at all, its not like when he held me in his arms and world became bright, or all those thousand words I could think of to describe the way I felt, it all seemed pointless, time suddenly felt different, I thought forever was mine to be taken away. The moment he wondered far from me, I wanted to feel his arms around me tight, to keep the warmth of love close, and then eventually I didn't want to feel, maybe even forget the pain was real. So I thought he might not know how much I really care, and I hoped deep inside he did. In this world of fools that broke us down, I wished he would only listen to the sound of my heart, for him to know I didn't hope or wish, but felt what he felt, that we belonged to the both of us.
Earthquakes can't shake us, cyclones can't break us, hurricanes shouldn't be able to take our love. Even when the wind blows, I will keep you up, together me and you.
I've been a fool in so many ways, but I would change my life if you thought you might try to love me, please give me another chance, to write you another song and take back those things I've done cause I'll give you my heart if you would let me start all over again. I'm no saint I'm only a man that had heaven and earth in the palm in his hand but threw it away, so now I stand here today asking forgiveness, baby girl your all I've got don't you leave me standing here once again, I'd give you my life if you'd let me try to love you. If you could just give me another chance? Could you do that?
