If Not For Love Then What
Her
She could feel his heart beating against hers.
Fueled by their love she drove a stretch of his fabric
and consumed his breath as if it was hers. As they continued to touch lips
she held on to him as one holds on to hope.
Him
For his part and without reservation
he believed that this union would last a lifetime
and beyond if possible.He knew that he would hold on
to this belief until his last moment.
Us
As outsiders watching we felt their sincerity.
We suddenly understood 'forever'.
A sense of our existence, our purpose.
Love is all encompassing.
In this case two destined lovers, lovers for life.
Few experiences are more inspiring than that.
