The Extra Mile
The Extra Mile
Date: July 13,2012
My longing remains unclaimed
Flustered by the winds of change
Whipped around and tossed awry
Leaving me to wonder why
The perfect match, would set aflame
A perfect love, not silly games
A fire that burns without remorse
Not some hoax or Trojan horse
A passion true, would never hide
Would walk ahead and push aside
If mountains high, obscure the path
Come tumbling down, beneath its wrath
A love that life allows to be
Would not be swayed by trickery
Would have no need for tricks or guile
Would always go the extra mile
