Only You, Only Me Poem by Leria Hawkins

Only You, Only Me
Date: October 4,2015

When I loved you first
I cannot say
So long ago
…another day
When I saw you smile
I stumbled fast
I fell too hard
Forgot the past
I’d hoped the sun
This time could mend
The aching heart
I held within
The raging flame
You never knew
Now burned in me
And burned in you
When I loved you first
In seasons past
I knew back then
It couldn’t last
I knew that love
Could never be
There was only you
And only me…
