There are certain times in a person's life
Just as fast as they happen, they are done.
When two kindred spirits
Come together for a moment to join as one.
I have found this so-called kindred spirit
We completed a whole made by two.
For a second in time we were connected
My kindred spirit is you.
You have reached places inside my dreams
Mystic blues shimmering in a lake
Grains of gold I have seen.
Yet in these dreams you've given me, I've been awake.
A touch of what heaven must be
All else but this feeling dismissed.
Ambrosia tastes and scents unimaginable
And all by only your kiss.
I could never explain using words
And the nerve of me to dare.
For how can you write poetry worthy
Of a long awaited answered prayer.

She got tongue tied telling me about him. I was already planning her wedding in my head. Just imagining how beautiful she would be walking down the isle and how her smile would be bright enough to fill the whole church with radiant light.
Unfortunately God had other plans for her.
Won't you please take a moment to vote.
