How To Spend a Life

October 2, 2009 · Posted in Blog, Family, Friendship, Life Experience, Love, Poetry 

us...thenIf love is what I get from You

Then you can bet I’ll give it too

‘Cause all I really want to do

Is spend my lifetime loving you.

When friends all leave or fade away

And the sun still shines on another day

Just know that I am here to stay

And spend a lifetime loving you.

As youth succumbs to the march of time

And the road you walk becomes a grind

Take heart, my love, you know that I’m

Gonna spend my lifetime loving you.

When death comes to call for me

And time gives way to eternity

I know my final words will be,

“I spent my lifetime loving you.”

For Donya, Love of my Life on her __th Birthday

    You have the music in you. I would love to hear you sing my words. That would make them sweeter than they have any right to be.
