A Life Story Poem by Bailey Schatte

There once was boy from Houston
And a girl from Jacksonville
One day they met and grew a love
Stronger than life itself.

As days went by
Their love never died
But soon they grew apart.
For what they had
Was to good to last
But boy was it a start.

Later in life
They met again
This time older
They each had friends
Their love was still there
They couldn't pretend
That what they wanted
Was to be nothing more than friends
Because deep inside
They both knew
What they wanted most to do
And that was to be
Both honest and true
Forever lovers
Through and through.
