Years Of Waste Poem by james d nall,jr

I chased a dream for such a long time
Looking back, it should've been a crime
Not satisfied with those that loved me
I pursued one that thought she was above me
Now as an old man I've began to reflect
Trying to find the reason, why me, she did reject
While other women thought I was their prince
I went without love, waiting for that one since
A life of sorrow, I lived for twenty long years
Only to have her marry, one that brought her only tears
But having found that her love would have been a waste
Because the sweetest love, on anothers lips I now taste
