Once Upon A Time

were the words the old soul spoke to his wife

he talked of the time his body was young and spry

playing with their children and embracing life

not of the now his body starting to die



looking back on their past together

both of them smiling as they knew it was forever

their first glance at each other and they were done

soulmates in love to be united as one


no tears to be shed, the time was not right

one last kiss for tonight is the night


holding her hand as he begain to slip away

never forget me he whispered, not now or in may


her hand placed upon his chest as the heartbeats came to a close

wishing with all her might that this was just another doze


she prayed and she prayed for another night of marriage

day dreaming of their first date in the horse buggy carriage


their time was over and so is this story

wishing for my own, hopes, dreams and glory
I know someday you will have a beautiful Life

    This is such a sad sentiment. Beautiful emotion there.

    I feel like a tool, but I can't help but make a suggestion to rework the "not in May" part. It just seems like it's forced in there to fit the rhyme scheme. Just my attempt at constructive criticism. :)

    That's why I gave up on rhyme scheme. Forces me into saying things I don't really mean to say.
