We entered this earthly stage together many years ago.
Act one Scene one: Our love seemed “all systems go.”
You touched my heart with your soulful voice.
Ever glad you and I made the right choice.
The sight of you walking toward me on the street,
My heart pulsed with an almighty beat.
The gut-wrenching ache was filled with despair,
When I knew you should be, but you weren't there.
You sent shivers down my spine,
In the glorious knowledge you were mine.
I trembled when our lips met in a passionate kiss.
That sensuous feeling, I never wanted to miss.
When you took me in your arms to hold me tight,
I experienced all the sensation of a lover’s delight.
Restful feeling, I had when we lay together at night.
Weary from the day’s work we had put out of sight.
Our bodies in slumber gently entwined.
Waking with feeling of ecstasy overwhelmed my mind.
I knew another like you I could never find.
So strong and masterful yet gentle and kind.
When we laughed together it was as if we were one.
Joined in happiness having so much fun.
When you needed me, I enjoyed helping you.
Working together as if that's what we were meant to do.
When you were hurt the darkest surge within me to pray.
That our dear Lord would take your pain away.
And while we are on that subject when we prayed to Him above.
I felt that oneness with you as we offered God our love.
You completed me and made me whole; you were my light.
My darling you are within me, though I am without your tonight.
Now it’s time for the final scene and to close the curtain,
Our play’s been a success. Standing ovation, that’s for certain.
