My Missing Piece

Now that we have had the miracle Of finding each other on this incredible journey Having seen how our embraces Flow and fit as if part of a master plan We are one, complete and whole To release our hold even for a moment To go out in the world alone Contrasts with our intimate bond Feeling as though a part of me is missing A void that hungers to be filled only by you We are far better together Greater than the sum of just two Love’s overwhelming wonder and power Empower us to overcome worldly troubles And find strength that neither of us had alone You are my missing piece The one that fills the emptiness in me, An emptiness so great of that I could not measure Until it was filled by your grace and love You and you alone make me whole TLR 10-23-17

Thank you my dearest Maureen! I’m truly blessed. She’s the love of my life, my muse, my partner. We met and felt very instantly like we’d know each other for years. If you haven’t already I hope and pray you find someone like that. :)
