The Saddest Thing Poem by Randy McClave

The saddest thing that I have ever done
Either beneath the moon or underneath the sun,
Something that I believed that I would never do
Something, that would tear the soul into.
At that moment in time I was in a different place
My blood pumped fast and my heart did race,
I was so very happy at that very moment in my life
I finally found a good woman, maybe even a wife.
Truly I felt that I was walking on air
Truly I believed God had answered my prayer,
For true love my heart began to beat
And I knew that those feelings of mine would repeat.
I still remember that moment and that day
And I remember where I stood and the words that I did say,
Sadly though God and my family heard and seen the tragedy
Was when I begged a woman, to love me.
