Twist of Fate


I chanced upon her one spring day,
her eyes took hold of mine.
The flowers bloomed and the sun came up,
on my heart it seemed to shine.

I held her hand and she held my soul,
her world came rushing to my door.
Her sweet smile made my heart sing,
I could ask for nothing more.

But this love we shared was not meant to be,
like a candle burning in the breeze.
The fragile flame could not stay lit,
her heart I could not please.

I will always have a special place,
for her beauty oh so rare.
Her loving eyes and heart so true,
will follow me everywhere.
