Fated To Be With Me
Rena knew she was coming, long before I did.
She was pulling at my heart strings.
She was glinting in my eye.
She was whispering to me in my sleep.
Telling me of the love she'd keep...for me.
She was waiting to be born.
Far off in the starry sky.
Why she choose us, I'll never know.
Our love had long since died.
The love she brought overwhelmed me.
It was so nurturing and complete.
Communicating telepathically.
Then every day "I love you mammy."
As soon as she could speak.
While at my breast, she was giving more
than she ever took from me.
Comfort, warmth, peace and pleasure.
A bond so strong, to this day we
know we belong together.
She's twenty now and although I am no longer "cool".
And I have put them through the mill.
Leaving daddy for reasons they may never understand.
The cord between us will never break.
Make no mistake!
