Serendipity

I remembered him from a chance encounter, a long time ago Facebook was the re-uniting force His success, his heartbreak, his frustration, I watched his life unfold Throughout time and circumstance, my own life ebbed and flowed I wanted to get to know him again, as I read the stories he told We always seemed to have someone, but they were hit and miss I felt our lives in parallel, but could never imagine this I took a chance and changed it all, and he responded in kind My heart bounded from my chest as I first heard his voice on the line His passion, his intelligence, his creativity, it took my breath away And then he decided to catch a flight, and come out to see me I knew the moment I saw him again, he was THE ONE, I fell instantly Woozy with anticipation, What if he didn’t feel the same? My heard and been broken so many times, was this all in vain? I felt it from his first touch, the same feeling of chemistry, undeniable from that first day His visit with me was amazing, filled with romance, passion and humor But as he boarded the gate to his plane, I wondered how we could have a future My eyes blinding stung with tears, I thought this was the end I fell into despair and depression, as reality set back in Would I ever see him again? The truth was I didn’t think so He had no plans to move out here, but I still couldn’t let him go. As the weeks unfolded there became a change, Everything happened quickly, life was rearranged He left his job, his world behind and came to stay Life hit us with many storms, and it was never easy We became inseparable despite of everything Call it God, call it fate, call it serendipity From the time I first met him that fateful night I got of glimpse of what my future would be My last name is Tingle now He made me his wife
