One Wish

From a distance quickly stealing a glance,
Shy eyes meeting and hearts skipping a beat.
Words begin pouring as butterflies dance.
Flushed cheeks turn pink, subsequently palms meet.

Days drift by, dreams become reality.
Hand in hand and kiss by kiss love grows deep.
Whispered vows become actuality,
Forewarning clouds of doom begin to creep.

Once outspoken words become silent thought,
As rain pours air bags suddenly attack.
Words of love were uttered before they were caught,
A wedding white day turned funeral black.

Instantly the dream became a nightmare,
Attempt the journey of love if you dare.
