                  Our Love

I'd heard people talk of soul-mates
and how they "met by fate".

They spoke of love so strong
that it could overcome all wrong.

I'd heard these tales of love sublime,
and had to wonder "Where is mine?".

Then I was blessed by God above
to meet such a man that I could love.

Our love was as strong as it was true,
but what lay in store neither of us knew.

Due to circumstances beyond our control,
our love hit a bump and our hearts took the toll.

Now here we are "face to face" again,
and both of us wonder where to begin.

Neither of us knows what the future holds,
but "love conquers all" so I've been told.

Welcome to Passions.  I too have found those I would claim as soul-mates.  They are the ones who have survived the hard times and not just the easy.  I hope yours remains true and strong.

Welcome freckles,
Very Nice poem you have written here
I believe that we all have soul mates,I just haven`t found mine yet
Sure hope we see more from you.

 Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
And the begining of a new one.

Wise words you use in your first
Love can build a bridge to overcome the worst
You poem I shall say
Is a good start to be on your way
I do not know what took you two apart
But obviuosly there is something left for a new start
Well done and welcome to Passions

 The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.

I only get about an hour on the computer every day. As much as I would love to thank each one of you individually, time is an issue.  Thank you so much for making me feel welcome; I hope to see work by all of you and to post more of my own.  Thanks to you twinsgd for gently pushing me this way.

Beautiful.

 I awake to a world I don't want. There is no transition for me. I am in heaven. I am in hell.

I really like this.  It is a wonderful description, although, I feel like there is something left to wonder about.  Hmmm.
