When I Was Young
written by: Lisa Keeble

I thought I knew love
For at least a day
And then forgotten
Space for new heartbreak
Without compromise
Love me or leave me
Watch them walk away
No longer perfect
Time changed perspective
Acceptable sham
Love’s imitation
Sad desperation
All that I longed for
Lost in passing years
Until I found you
No more jaded heart
Pure, childish belief
That true love exists
Silent companion
Walks beside us all
Came then to claim you
For the dark, from life
I was lost, broken
But ever grateful
That you showed me love
