Seems to me
it was only moments ago
not so very far away
in our distant closeness
that I chanced to meet
my destiny,
my past lives coming in a life
reborn,
my tomorrows to be realized

all in your smile

days melted into weeks
metamorphosed into months
which carried on a little further
and
why a particular date
comes to mind,
I don't know

but I think
it is when
I first asked

How you were doing

and for the first time
in our casual acquaintance
you did more than just nod
or smile

you talked with your heart

for I had seen through
the marginal ways
of you

you heard the sincere
in my voice
and suddenly, the side of
you that normally remains
hidden
suddenly felt safe

you unloaded a few burdens

and then you thought

"why did I do that,"

but it felt good.

And you questioned it no longer.

Inexplicably
we were soon talking
not as friends
not as lovers
but as soul-mates,
laughing and enjoining
ourselves

always looking to say
more
with less

just to hear the
breathing of our conversations
is more than
comfortable for our ears
as this coming together
warms our hearts
fills our needs

our minds meet
so our words don't have to

all that awaits us
is our destiny

I live in your heart...
You live in mine

I know this.

It is your gift to me.

It is more than enough.

Dear Lady, this is a joy to read - well done, Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

To have a bond of friendship where words
are known before expressed...where two
souls come together and can share life,
without judgement...is a truly special gift.

Beautiful words Lady....very much so....
