Marley Fox Poem
A story can be told when they look at our love.
The story is profound, but with a tragic ending.
We didn’t die.
We simply let too much time pass by.
This love begins on a stormy night when I was just trying to get home.
You came along and I never managed to get home that night.
It was only by chance that I met you when I did. But you were early.
From that first night, we formed a bond that no man could break,
But we were too immature to handle the capacity of the love the universe wanted us to have.
So we left each other...
Years passed before we met again. This time our love started on a windy day.
We took a walk through the park and caught up about things that occurred in our lives.
You had gotten married… I brought a child into this world.
This time you came too late…
Our last love story begins on a sunny day.
We were older but young at heart.
Your marriage had ended… My daughter had moved out.
The timing now was perfect, yet bitter-sweet.
I was married now… but wanting to leave.
I would have left for you
But you didn’t want to wait... you said time wasn’t on our side
Our love was lost again.
We don’t live forever and more time is promised...
but maybe we’ll meet again before our souls leave this place.

Marley Fox Poem
These thoughts cloud my mind. Thoughts of what cold have been and what will never be.
On the day we me, I felt like you were something special. But time went on you turned out to be merely ordinary. I know no one is ordinary and that were all extraordinary...
But what I thought was sparks in the air, turned to dust as soon as it appeared. I wanted to be wanted. To be seen as more than the surface displayed.
I placed all my hopes on you. Hopes to be loved and hopes to be happy.
Expectations that you nor any other could ever meet.
A fantasy I knew you could never be. But I wanted and needed you so badly to be the savior of my story.
I kept my eyes closed to the reality that I already was my savior. Now as I sit here in the dark with these empty thoughts. I think of you and I thank you.
