If you want to fall in love with me then fall in love today don’t fall because of what’s gone past but love what’s here to stay It’s only at this moment we can make the angels sing so take my hand and let us reach to grasp that golden ring I promise I’ll be here for you I promise I will stay My heart will be yours if you want it But please take it today.
As well as being a poet, Paul, you seem to be evolving into a mindfulness guru. Live and love in the moment. We can make it precious if we wish to. It's a good poem, and good advice also.
Paul, once again your words capture so much for so many of us. I read all the comments and they strike me as our bouquet of thanks to you, your words and for sharing them . Daniel
This is a beautiful poem, Paul. Relationships are so complex and bringing up the past, trying to relive the past, further complicates matters. I love the last line, "But please take it today." Thank you for this.
