As My Intended, Be

not above me as a chief
nor below me as a slave
but mesh to me
interlocking
as the missing piece in my jigsaw puzzle of life
then
you shall have my heart
and I shall know yours

Virginia, this is very nice, and indeed as it should be....

but individuals are, well, so Individual...

and we forget what we first knew!

I have one of those! Not to boast, because he is still his very own, as well. A great verse!

VAS,
this reminds me of one of my favourite sayings. if i remember correctly, it goes something like:

do not lead, for i shall not follow, do not lag behind, for i shall not lead but walk beside me and be my friend...

lovely thoughts and may we all find more of such goody pieces of puzzles in life

Thank you all, yes this is a way of saying "Out of your side" to walk beside you.  Too late I learned that the successful couple is one who has recognized how their strengths and weaknesses can complement each other and mesh together, respectfully, like a fine piece of art rather than be lorded over or put down respectively.
