Ode To True Love Poem by Maurice Harris

I did not know it was even gone,
Because I never really needed it, since
The day our lives diverged and we moved on-
Then, my heart made another appearance
When you came back to me, after a lifetime.
As though you knew why it had been coffered,
You provided it purpose again, at just the right time,
With the promise of a love, long ago offered!

What the future holds is now not known,
With you in my heart though, I am never alone.
Keep me in your heart too, so I am there when you need me.
One day, I may again be the call of your heart-
Should this come to pass, I beg of you to heed me
So that I may gift my love's full impart!
