     My life is an open book
     the pages are blank you see,
     there must be someone to fill them
     and write the words with me.

     Maybe helping to write a few sentences
     to fill up this empty page,
     and perhaps to add a chapter or two
     before it grows faded and worn with age.

     It might end up with a happy ending
     or it might just be a tragedy,
     but we won't know until we turn the last page;
     yes we will have to wait to see.

     When the last page is finally written
     and the period is marked on the last line,
     maybe it will turn into a beautiful saga
     and the story will be yours and mine.

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

I really enjoyed how you wrote this desire to share your life as a shared work of writing a book.  And though happy endings aren't ever guaranteed...I've found coming away with a good story is something.

Like the song "Unchained Melody" by the Righteous Brothers...

I sway to music that
you give to my ears,
moving across the "Starry Night"
beach hand in hand.

He bends her back,
ever so slowly, hold
on as not to lose grip.
He looks upon her face,
and sees the glow of
what full of grace and love.

She sees such gentleness in his eyes.
Full of warmth and gentleness.
As each moments passes,
it feels like a lifetime that they
knew each other in another time.
Meeting each other, but not really speaking.
Each seeking each others counsel,
ready to respond.  

These raw gems, even a little rough around the edges
Each learning, growing strong as each day's
passes side by side.

Who would have thought,
if you really knew these two -
each with their special qualities,
willing to share with all.

To BC -
LP.

==================
Ahhh if only it was as easy as us writing our own ending...
creative perspective here GS..
and perfect cadence.
well done poetess  

I miss you so much I cant stand it
Seems like my heart is breaking in two
My head says no, but my soul demands it
Everything I do reminds me of you
