You found me broken at the side of the road Dazed, confused and almost no hope You sat down beside me and chatted a while Then stretched out your hand and said with a smile “Come walk with me down this road We’ll take a few steps and see where we’ll be. It’s a good time to live, just come walk with me."
I looked up and saw magic in your eyes And felt a spark light somewhere deep down inside You held my hand and dragged me along “This is life’s road. It’s where we belong.”
I walked by your side in wonder and awe At the beauty that is in all that we are. You showed me the love you wanted to share, So I walked at your side along this strange road Learning of love and yearning for more.
I turned to the side and the path that was there “Come walk with me down this wandering path?” You smiled as you said “Of course I will dear. We’ll make our own path and tend it with care.”
So we walked down that road paying no mind To those who would laugh as we passed by. So when we walked home the very last time And we lay down forever in each other’s arms.
And when we were gone and the laughter had died All they could say is, ”Where are the lovers so old and so grey Who lived their love new each and every day.”

About this poem:
I write quite a lot now "I am Broken and alone" and I wrote this in about 15 minutes when i Woke in the middle of the night. At the time I was just starting to explore the realm of dating. Unsure and eager. I was rewarded by a scammer contacting me one one of the sites i was on. Never the less I was flattered and this is what spilled out of me that evening when I thought that I might have received an opportunity to love again
I had almost forgotten about this one. Upon rereading I have made a couple of edits. I think it flows better now
