The Right Love at the Wrong Time

We had the right love, but at the wrong time,
Albeit chance or of fate, our paths entwined.
Soulmates converging and destinies aligned,
Still can’t turn back the cruel hands of time.

We met ’neath glistening stars on a velvet night,
The connection was strong, our future so bright.
But life’s melody, is so often a contrary chime,
We had the right love, just at the wrong time.

We had the right love, but at the wrong time,
Two hearts harmonizing, with one joyful rhyme.
Our passion burned hotter, than a quasar sun,
But love that burns brightest is too soon undone.

Seasons do change, opportunity comes to pass,
Love’s blossoms will wilt, or wither like grass.
A poignant chapter, a zealous, sensual crime,
To have the right love, but at the wrong time.

Down life’s road, our paths may cross again,
My hope will abide, no matter where or when.
The echoes of your love will linger in my mind,
We had the right love, just not the right time.
