Being deeply loved by someone
gives you strength, while loving
someone deeply gives you courage
and sometimes in a lifetime you
meet that one special soul who
fills your very essence to almost
overflow and you find that love is
the gentle embrace between body
and soul.
The soul that lives in the heart,
no distance can prevail, an inner
spark within the heart becomes
a holy grail, the starting of a
journey in which you both shall
be a reflection of each other for
all eternity and you will say to
one another, "I am yours, you
are mine because our hearts
and our souls are entwined and
I love you with my soul because
the soul never stops and never
forgets."
"The melding of our bodies,
the surging of our two souls,
and the love between us keeps
us from growing old," and you
will hardly be able to see where
one of you begins or the other
person ends, and what a special
way to age, by being together
having grown like parsley
and sage.
I did not know what love was,
until I knew what love was not.
