I thought I lost my one true love
She fled through my front door
Never to return
I put flyers up
They read
“Love, lost, please return it “
But nobody did
Three long years I pined
Over thought, had conversations
Inside my head
Of the why’s, the what if’s
Then you appeared
One sunny morning in May
To tend my mother’s wounds
The days, the weeks, the months went by
Each time you’d greet me with a smile
A look of attraction was clear to see in your eyes
I look back on that time, it seems so long ago
I’ve grown so much; you pulled me out of the darkest place
A place I thought love would never grace
Yet now I realise my one true had not left
She had not arrived
Because I realise I was waiting for you
