A Lifetime Full Of Searching Poem by Scott Salmon

A lifetime full of searching,
Always looking for,
A friend to fill the empty space,
A girl that I adore,
I can't believe I found her,
At first I didn't see,
The one who I was built for,
The perfect girl for me,
At first I couldn't stand her,
And she was left behind,
She became the nanny,
And treated us so kind,
At first the trust was built up,
And friends we soon became,
Cooked and baked she cared for us,
Life would never be the same,
Then one night it happened,
We pushed aside our fears,
We both recall by what we thought,
Not in a million years,
Since that night we've struggled,
She wasn't as sure as I,
And so our love is off and on,
While she loves another guy,
It's always like that isn't it,
With couples now these days,
One is always deep in love,
And the other wants to play,
As I sit and wait to hear,
If her heart is one that yearns,
I think of how I love her so,
And hope our love returns.
