Love Poem: She's Already Taken

She's Already Taken

When a man finds himself
At a crossroads in this life
And he's searching for the woman
That he can call his wife

He looks to his past
To see where he's gone wrong
He picks up his old heart
And tries to tear down walls

To hold you in my arms
To hear your I love you
There's just one small problem
That we can't work through

She's already taken
My heart and my dreams
By a man who still loves her
So where does that leave me

When I tell you that I love you
I hope you will understand
Its my dying wish to hold you
And for me to be your man

Like the pinnacle of love
The pedestal I place you on
Reaches higher than the Heavens
Our souls our strongest bond

But she's already taken
My heart and my dreams
By a man who still loves her
So where does that leave me

Can our once secret kiss
Lead into love
Though it never really had too
Cause for me it always was

As she looked away I saw 
The smile upon her face 
Was she thinking of the what could be
Or how time has helped erase

The thoughts of how she felt
Have my dreams all been disproved
Did my soft and gentle forehead kiss
Translate to I Love You

She already knows
Just what she means
But I want her to know
That in us I still believe

Though she's already taken
My heart and my dreams
There's no man alive
Who can love her like me

Shaken not stirred
Now she's living the life
And He's hoping his money
Will keep her by his side

What are the chances
In a small town like this
That we could meet our soulmate 
Yet somehow miss the bliss

In a small town your lucky 
If you don't settle for someone
Did the Good Lord place my soulmate
So our two could become one

Because she's already taken
One thing will remain
It's the blame that I place on me
And I'll never be the same
