I have found the one that's meant for me,
A kindred spirit, my one and only soulmate today,
We are connected in every single way; almost,
She lives so far away.
It feels like a cruel joke that god's playing on me,
A tease, a wicked twist of fate,
To find each other, shares and love,
Then to have me gone by a certain time.
This distance is my enemy, I hate every single mile,
I wish I could throw a rope and have her grab the other end,
Maybe if we pulled real hard,
We could close the empty space between us,
and be together every waking moment.
And....
Then the door knob turns,
My heart skips a beat,
I feel the excitement and anticipation,
From my head to my feet,
When you're not in my presence,
Time seems to stand still,
I can't wait to see you,
This longing to fulfill.
Today, you've become my reason for living,
The cost of this love-
My soul- I am giving.
Lastly...
The treasured gift of refined love,
I've found in you it seems,
Which steals my breath, weakens my heart,
And rivals maudlin dreams.
With insight captured in my heart,
Where fantasies are stored,
I see that you and I both have,
The blessing of the lord.
Who knows that Romeo so loves
His dearest Juliet,
Both fated with a sacred love,
That neither will forget.
We're scripted in each others lives,
Where love has been unfurled,
And so its innocence remains,
The envy of the world.
