Did we meet in heaven? Did we fall in love as angels? Living in a world of our own creation Walking by sunlight Loving by starlight. . . Such was our existance of love Every day together better than the last Until the time your soul was called back Returning to earth Renewing a life. . . Now heaven may be paradise But without you it was a hell Eternity can be a very lonely place Without a love Without a reason. . . So, I struck a deal with them "Send me back there too," I pleaded "I know that I can find her again Knowing her heart Knowing her soul. . . " They gave me some time, 30 years Half a life to find my destiny, my fate "Once you find her, you'll be together forever" An eternity together Forever in love. . . I entered the world once again A different name, a different life, once more Wailing into the world, on a quest for eternal love Life beginning again Love seeking again. . . Our lives began here seperately You led a life of ease, mine not so easy We both knew there was more, but where and when? The answered question The question answered. . . Your life seemed to have purpose You always knew what you wanted You always seemed to find others to have in your life To comfort you To hold you. . . My life was just aimless wandering Moving from town to town never staying Never really knowing what I was looking for in life Until one day One fateful day. . . They told me I only had 2 years left That my life hadn't been spent looking for you But rather then take me back, they intervened My prayers answered My direction shown. . . The instrument spoke to me Showing me direction and purpose It was right then I knew what I had to do A song written Just for you. . . A song for you my unknown muse Given to me by the angels above A song that made me famous but still You weren't there I had failed. . . My 30th birthday, my time now over Unknown to me, but somehow I knew My life now empty, perhaps I'll take a walk One last walk To find eternity. . . You walk the other way But then you turn around You don't know why, you just do Seeking to find Finding your heart. . . I feel you there behind me I turn around one last time I see your face before me Your beautiful face As I remembered. . . That's when they called me back. . . They took me back to say "Happy Birthday! But you're not staying Congratulations. . . you found her. . . Together you'll be For all eternity. . . " A match truly. . . . . . Made In Heaven. . . ------------------------------------------------------------------ That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

A beautiful poem! I've heard that we were complete souls once, that the souls were torn in two and scattered throughout the universe..always seeking their 'soulmate'.. |

Wow Sven! This is so beautiful and amazing. You have such a way with words, and you write about a beautiful subject with eloquence and perfection. This is definately one of my favourites! You have such a talent when it comes to love. I still believe that God creates soulmates for everyone, thanks for reminding us all of that hope. Take care, Melissa Honeybee |

This is amazing Sven! I am a firm believer in the rebirth of a soul and how soulmates are always meant to be together in any life. Beautiful writing. Marina |

Thank you. . . deVine. . . yes, I have heard that too, would that we could all find that "soulmate" right away. . . life would be different. . . but then, we'd have to pay attention. . . Irie. . . thank you. . . I'm so glad that you liked it. . . Melissa. . . *blushing* thank you so much! Yes, I believe it too. . . and I'm glad that I reminded you. . . Marina. . . I thought the reason that you posted twice was that you liked twice as much!!  Thank you my friend. . . Kit. . . thank you, now if we could get more people to believe it!! Glad that you liked. . . For those of you who don't know, Made In Heaven is a wonderfully romantic movie with Kelly McGillis and Timothy Hutton. . . I would advise renting this movie this weekend and enjoying it. . . ------------------------------------------------------------------ That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Sven~ If the movie is half as good as your poem ... it would be a delight. How moving ... ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
