But Then I Met You Poem by Gert Strydom

But Then I Met You

Rating: 5.0


Once I loved a girl,
who left me
for another man
and that deceit
I could never understand
and wretched did that pain appear

Once I loved a woman
and her children
who left me
to live with another guy,
without knowing the
reason why
and a life spent in vane
left a lot of pain.

At times love
seemed to be for others
and the worst kind of curse,
but then I met you
and the world changed
and true love enchanted me
and I knew how deep
love could really be.

Till we meet the real God, how many fake God men are v meeting in life, , , , , , , , likewise till v meet the real counterpart or complementary(angle say like) or supplementary, could it be complimentary and supplimentary....v have numerous fake encounters for which there should be enough strength in us to survive after the battle.............All tests are for making us stronger however we fall suffering down after those tests...........Thks......nice poem.

Finding a perfect partner could well be a compensation for all the past heart breaks and sufferings. Here, we find an intense expression of feelings reflecting upheavals in life. Thank you very much, GS.
