Love Poem: There Was a Man

Written by: Ingrid Lehman

There Was a Man

There was a man
So good and kind
He awoke in her
A light inside
That had been locked
And shut so tight

It glimmered with hope
And a wondrous love
A passion that grew
With every soft touch
The kiss that spoke
Of a blissful journey

Slowly the wall came down
The shell began to crumble
The fear was fading
The light grew stronger
The bodies entangled
Their eyes held their souls

Was it possible to love again?
To unlock the chains
That held her back
To push the memories
To a far away place
To be free and at peace and one again
