the other side of a broken heart

once

upon a time

the man I am

who was back then

played a certain song

he took her hand

and in the darkness

accentuated by

a single candle and its light

he held her tight

the living room

was large enough

to slow dance in

and so they did

he looked into her eyes

and sang these words

as best he could:

“Oh but you're lovely,

with your smile so warm

And your cheeks so soft

There is nothing for me but to love you,

Just the way you look tonight” *
