On the seashore we had a date
To talk things over without haste
Tough decisions we'd have to make
Carry on or make a clean break

With trepidation we walked to meet
Stolen moments from daily routine
Bare our hearts, patch or delete
Love truncated at age sixteen

Three decades later realized
Our love was one of it's kind
If only we had not been ill adviced
If only we had not been so blind

Life would have taken a different turn
Love wouldn't be kept in heart's urn
