I wrote these lines for you
Mark A. Klein 1965 (Cairo, Ill)
I wrote this when my heart was at its weakest.
When tears flowed from my eyes
I wrote this in its purest form
I wrote these lines for you
I wrote from past excursions
I wrote from present dreams
For all with best intentions
My heart to yours it seems
The life we have together
Will not be left to chance
This life that’s filled with meaning
Shall not be happenstance
I Cherish every moment
Till breath I breath my last
My heart is full of joy
That you came cross my path
About this poem
I wrote this for my wife after leaving the celebration of life for a close friend. In my emotional state I felt impelled to express my feelings
