A Place In Time Poem by Wilfred Mellers

A Place In Time
Written by: Wilfred C. Mellers, Monday, December 04,2006


I have been to many places,
And I have known many faces.
But I have yet to meet that special someone.

I've been high and low;
Once my heart was aglow,
But no one I've met has been the one.

I've been here and there,
Yet I have found no one who wants to care.
I am still searching for someone near and dear.
I've looked around the corner and over the bend,
But I still haven't found a special friend.
I've met many people whom I kept close,
But none of them I've loved the most.

I care for everyone I have met,
Looking back on life, I have no regrets.
The feeling of being part of a pair is still there.
Do you care?
Jump into the fire, if you dare.

Enter into my world, just walk right in;
You will see the places I've been.
Walk a mile in my shoes,
And take a chance if you choose.
Take a leap of faith with me,
Look into my eyes, and you will see

A man who gives himself completely,
A man who needs you desperately,
A man who will be there, not just occasionally,
A man who understands responsibility,
A man who will never fall for infidelity.

A man who will love you down to the bone,
A man who would never leave you alone,
A man who'll be there through good times and bad,
A man who would give you everything he had.
To hear your voice makes him exceedingly glad.

Now I am a one-man show.
I hurt more than you'll ever know.
How I would love to see your face glow!
I'm sure your love for me would grow.
All I need is a chance;
I could show you true romance.

I could take you places you've never been before;
I can be the one you adore.
I like to feel love before I sleep;
For you, in my heart, I'll always keep.
Leap blindly into the dark;
Your fire will spark my heart.
Let me be your all-in-all;
I will be at your beck and call.
