Cruel Fate

As 2017 quickly approaches I find myself not so much filled with regret as questioning time, fate and circumstance. I didn't go looking nor did I hope to find a love so gentle it calms me through my most troubled times. I never expected my heart could feel this way, until I met you and I was never quite the same. I feel a certain amount of happiness to have you in my life and a touch of sorrow that doesn't feel quite right. I do believe circumstance keeps us apart and time passes so quickly as tool of cruel fate. I'll take this moment to tell you how I feel as long as you are listening the tear will be still.

My heart is beating
for you and you alone
from the moment
you first said hello.

My eyes are closed
and my heart is open wide
and you quickly entered
and are there inside.

My heart is beating for
you and you alone ,
from the moment
you first said hello.

We share what others
may never understand,
a love that strengthens
without any demands.

My heart is beating for
you and you alone,
from the moment
you first said hello.

Our flesh is parted
our souls are one
and that is the story
of this special kind
of love.
