Love Story
The meeting …
… eyes met
… but there was vastness
… ambivalence penetrated …
The friendship …
… cared for
… and held tightly in heart
…yet hands off
… though spirits are connected …
The barrier …
… somebody was there
… feelings at stake
… thinking of the other
… but loving you still
… owning me …
The opening …
… thanks for texting
… then the dare
… undressed the pride
… turning to reality
… our dreams of yesterday
… unclothing our feelings …
The commitment …
… now it’s you and I
… thoughts wider in scope
… feelings deeper in core
… love not in question
… for it didn’t stop in the heart
… it included the mind
… it enclosed the spirit …
The love story …
My love story …
Your love story …
No longer mine and yours …
But ours …
Our Love Story …
… together …
… in happiness and in pain
… in sickness and in health
… ‘til death do us part …
