I had thought wrong
I thought I had it all figured out
I thought my world revolved around what I had believed in
I thought everyone saw and agreed at the same things as I have
I thought you and them saw the measure of the love I have for you in countless ways
I thought it all has been understood and no one was going to complain
You see...
These thoughts that constantly lingered away within my mind
They brought me no where close to you
Though you must forgive me, realizing that came late in time
But Ah...

I thought if I traveled another mile
I thought if I wore your favorite dress
I thought if I wore my hair up
I thought if I wore the right shade of lipstick
I thought if I wore my heart out on my sleeve
Maybe I would have been able to capture your soul
I thought my love for you is obvious
Oh Darling, Oh how I thought it all wrong
Oh I thought and thought to no avail
I thought all the time of how to keep you close to my heart
If I knew I would lose you due to such thoughts, I would have not spend so much time
Perfecting the imaging of my thoughts
Oh darling please bare with me, I have thought wrong once again
Though that is what love is all about
Love is truly blind and that is when cupid plays his wicked game
Aimlessly shooting, cupid has awakened my heart
His arrow lead me to you
Thus why I have been so lost within my thoughts
As a child,
I longed for comfort from my father and mother
I thought no one could ever replace a father and mother’s love
As a young lady
I watched those teens fall in love
I watched them hold hands
I watched them kiss
And share music in ways words lack to explain
I thought such love will never be broken or be formed in any other better way
As a grown woman
Love found it’s way, and oh how gently it came knocking
That woman in me saw a man standing outside her door somehow ready to love her unconditionally
You sent me Daisies
You sent me chocolate
You sent perfume
Even poems
I thought such objects expressed pretty much your love for me
Ah...
So I thought...
Forgive me darling, once again I have thought wrong
Though all seems so wrong and all of what I had thought is counted to be false
I learned one thing
I learned love is not found because of beauty that a man and a woman possess
Nor with the objects each gives one another on daily bases or on holidays
Nor is love found by how one touches your bare skin
Or kisses the nakedness of ones lips
My friend
Love is found in ways unspoken, in ways untouched
Love is found when one looks deeply inside the eyes
For the eyes are the windows to the soul
Love is when you cannot find the perfect words to express how you feel
Love is found when you stand in shopping places trying to figure out what is perfect enough
For your significant other to wear or to have
Love has no words because of it being so perfect
Perfect cannot be explained
Those are my thoughts
Heaven help me if I am wrong
If then I am wrong
And if one soul can prove my thoughts wrong
Then I shall seal my lips
And for the rest of the coming years
Silence will be my friend
I thought you might like to know
For a very long time
I thought you and I
Finally found
the purpose to living this so-called life
I had thought we found
the eternal bliss called Love, Forgive me I had thought wrong.
