Love Poem: Once There Was a Love

Once There Was a Love

once there was a love 
so pure, so strong
filled with so much love
you and me

our lives to cherish together
for a lifetime
then you found another love
and i was alone

once there was a love
so pure, so strong
that i thought would last forever
now i am alone

once there was a love
I will be too old to feel again
if i ever would find it again
oh say it isn't so

why did you go?
why did you take your love and go?
where did i go wrong?
when everything was so right

once there was a love
and i can not pretend
that i'm not still in love with you
that was so long ago
and my heart is so alone
