Courage In Love

I fell in love with you from a social site;
the words you wrote,
how those words made me feel,
things you adored,
your life's experiences.....made
me fall in love with you deeply.
We exchanged contacts, and
started to talk. Your voice felt
sweet like custard cream!
I booked a bus,
and came to see you. I didn't
follow my mind's caution
or hesitation. I followed my soul's
wish to meet you. I flew to your
warm embrace, like a magnet
attracted by a stronger magnet.
I risked all my mind's doubts
and fears,
to meet someone my soul
was certain about;
familiar as though we had met
in another past life.
Now, I'm so proud to have you in my arms,
as a Soulmate.....

True, Mark. There's a statistics that almost 50% of divorces around the world are caused by social sites, especially Facebook and dating sites. Well, the same sites have brought together perfect couples and marriages!! ;-) Thank you so much Mark, for your kind applause!! ;-)
