a lover's question

~~~~{<3}~~~~

 

how did we happen

you and I

did stars align with moons

did gods use our lonely hearts

to play love's familiar tunes

 

did the time become right once again

fated friends to be

how did we happen

you and I

I for you

and you for me

 

has not our life together

been as we were found

everyday

adrift

away

love is ever homeward bound

 

ebb and flow

never the same

but always as it should be

how did we happen

you and I

I for you

and you for me

 

enlaced in passion poses

that never are the same

yet always fresh and ever new

still

two flickers from one flame

 

first kiss to death's final parting

neither could

nor shall I foresee

how did we happen

you and I

I for you

and you for me

 

~~~~{<3}~~~~

 

 

 

*For my lover
