Love Had Just Begun Poem by Randy McClave

As she slept, I wept
There was nothing more that I could do,
So, I just sat, like a diplomat
How I wished that she just had the flu.
Her eyes were closed, as she dozed
Her lips they were slightly parted,
To be at ease, I watched her breathe
Our love, it had just started.

I paced the floor, towards the door
But, I did not know where to go,
So, again I cried, I lost my pride
As I stared out at the stars through the window.
Our love was forever, no one could sever
As I paced the floor once again,
I looked at her there, just lying there
Our love, did just begin.

While I thought, she fought
We weren't going to leave each other,
So, she stayed, and I prayed
I will never search or want another.
I held her hand, as if to stand
But, me she did shun,
I kissed her head, angels fled
Our love, it had just begun.
