I WILL LOVE YOU THEN
You there, worried soul, care not,
For if life’s true claim were to be happy,
Then the joy in the unexpected,
Would not exist,
For life takes joy as solace not as aim,
We must look beyond a joyous moment,
In our given time,
For in the ever after love story of tomorrow,
And should your heart be freed,
Then I will wait upon you,
And, if your future life should need,
A strength that only I can give,
Then I will love you then.

Lisa, thank you so much. I love the old fashioned romantic broken heart poetry that one would find in the early 1800s, the old posts cards and valentine cards. Kinda neat I think. Karen
