Together

couple



Gazing into your deep blue eyes


 

The same color as years before


 

And though your face is wrinkled with time


 

It makes my heart still soar.


 


 

Years seem to have flown by


 

And you faithfully remain by my side


 

Through the wonderful, blissful times


 

In each other, we both always confide.


 


 

Yet sitting on this park bench


 

With your hand entwined in mine


 

Seeing all the "young ones"


 

Pass on by us looking fine.


 


 

Thinking back on the rough times


 

They have yet to even know


 

That bring us closer together


 

More than ever thought could be so.


 


 

So let life continue to bring it upon us


 

And if alone I find I can't stand


 

We can overcome it together


 

With your fingers enlaced in my hand.


 

Author notes

Well, I intentionally wrote this for a friend's contest, but I posted it too late for that. Oh well, I hope that you enjoyed it still. Oh, and NO, it is not personal or even thought to be so. Thanks for reading

    Too bad you couldn't have entered this poem... maybe you should have asked this "friend" and they would have opened it back up for you. Like Kim said, I liked the way the background and text and picture all flowed together. Plus I very much enjoyed the poem that you included All around amazing job! I still wish you would post that poem you promised me you'd write... but I won't keep bugging you about it since you probably won't ever do it. Hope you are doing good

    Hey Chelsea,
    Wow this is great, although I already looked at this poem; it looks really good with the background, and the picture. Great job with this one. To bad that you didn't get this posted in your "friends" contest.
