Array ( [sid] => 123339 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Sand Grains [time] => 2006-07-17 19:59:35 [hometext] => This really isn't poetry. I might consider it as prose possibly, but not poetry. [bodytext] => Sand Grains

I loved her with all my heart when we were in Jr. High. And I still love her the same amount, only times 10,000,000. (That's a very small amount, actually)
For something to relate to, take one grain of sand. That will represent my love for her in Jr. High. And today, thirty-six years later, my love for her now is represented by all the rest of the sand grains on all of the sandy beaches throughout the world.
Never would I try to nor allow anyone else to intrude on her world or life because that might turn out to make her life miserable, and she doesn't deserve that or anything like that.
If, to insure her happiness, it meant that I could never lay my eyes on her again, then so be it. For her happiness is a primary concern as I pray often for it for her.
I divorced for the third time in 1992, after which my thoughts turned more to her much more often than I care to admit to. When I found out that she had remarried and is (as I was told) very happy and being treated with the love and respect she deserves, I thought to myself that I can not intrude on her now. It might cast many different shadows on her life, and that is one thing she does not need after being married for such a short period of time. I can (and will) continue to love her as I have for all these years.

Oh Wrdz, I'm so sorry, this is gallantly 'very sad.' Life does indeed through us curve balls, without any regards for our desires or wishes. Still, this is very romantic and reveals a glimpse into your loving nature. What a great read, Wrdz; thank you for sharing.
