love is what matters most in the world
Location
Love is what we do best
Of that there is no doubt
It is a test
That we cannot live without
Often I felt alone and lost
Unloved and unwanted
As cold as frost
I felt forgotten
But he turned it around
When I least expected it
He was never one to be brought down
Not the one to easily quit
When we meet he smiled
I just turned away
He stayed there for a while
But I had nothing to say
He continued everyday
Smiling without caring
At what was thrown his way
He was quite daring
After a while he would just talk
To me and tell me about a thing or another
He we would talk and I would walk
He told of his mother
Of how he loved and lost
I held his hand as he spoke
When to him she would sing with voice so soft
And when he was done he awoke
Of the reverie he was in
He told me of how his mother died
How she let death win
How he would lead me to see the bright side
I told him I had tried
So many times, yet he went on
To explain to me how he would provide
The perfect thing that had no con
I asked him to tell me this perfect thing
He said ‘it’s a secret, but you soon will find out’
The next day he gave me a crown claiming I was a queen
It was strange but he just laughed, at me there was no doubt
However the next few days went the same
He would bring gifts and read me a poem he wrote
Although some thing would seem lame
They were really sweet; he would often say a quote
On things quite peculiar
But they all shared the inspirational spark
It was very soon when things got unusual
When one day he took me to the park
He was quite nervous that I could tell
Of what I didn’t know
I really hoped things were well
He brought me there to see the sunset, to see it glow
And without a second thought he kissed me right there
I didn’t how to respond, but before I could he left my lips
He turned away quickly; it looked like he didn’t seem to care
He apologized claiming he had slipped
I laughed for the stupid excuse he had given me
He turned my way so he could see my eyes and I could see his
I closed my eyes so that I could see
With my heart that is
He had kissed me, of course
Why, was what I was asking
I didn’t know if this situation could get any worse
I came to care for him, and I was not acting
‘Why’ I had asked after a silent moment
‘I was hoping you could fall’
I listened to what was spoken
Then asked what was he saying all I all
He said he was hoping I would fall in love
‘Why would you do that?’
‘Love can cure anything
All you needed was someone
to care for you, to kiss you.
I know I am not the right person to do so
but love is what we do best
of that you can be sure.’
I fell in love with him
I didn’t intend to but I did
He passed away not so long ago
I shall never forget him
He helped me feel loved again
He helped me see the good of the world
He taught that love is what we do best
Of that there is no doubt
