One Heart Series {3} Poem by val legend

in the corner of the street
he met her
for that was their place
it was where it all began
that's why he chose to propose to her here...

it's been weeks
yet it feels like a lifetime
he felt like he had loved her in a past life
and he was destined to love her in this life...

she is all he needs
all he wants
with a ring in his pocket
a smile on his face
and a speech in his heart...

he stood before her
ready to propose
but he was not prepared
for that which he dreaded...

in the corner of the street
he met her
for that was their place
it was where it all began
it is where it's should to end...

he was about to speak
she spoke
'hold on'
I have something to say...
'you are perfect
the best anyone could wish for
the stuff dreams are made of
that is why I have to let you go
I wish I could stay
but if i did I would only rip your heart out
if I had a heart I would have loved
if I had a heart I would have stayed'
she turned her back to him
ready to walk away
it took a moment for what she said to settle in...
he knew if he let her walk away
then he would have loved her forever
watching her leave is the only thing that could rip his heart out...

'Hold on! wait a moment' he shouted
