The Storm

I always thought that we'd be together united as one for all eternity forever hand in hand soulmates, soaring in the see through the heavens, feeling the gentle warm kiss of the Sun on our faces and the cool soothing  caress of the moon on our backs 
 at peace and in love
 one day without warning are sky suddenly darkened its hue and electricity filled the air
 lightning and thunder stormed there menacing selfs  through our once peaceful  skies and from nowhere it came 
 a single bolt of lightning White Lightning that was to become the catalyst of our fate
  it struck us apart, wounding ever so deeply, not only our souls but splitting or entwined hearts in two
 in the pain and confusion our hands are separated 
 and like inexperienced lovers we reached out for each other with no light to guide us 
 my hands frantic, afraid and desperate for yours 
 Your hands? I felt them ever so briefly like feathers as your fingertips brushed mine
 hoping to find what we sought searching anxiously for a hold instead there was nothing to grasp accept the dark still air 
 all we wanted was to be as we were but this was not meant to be 
 Oh My Love all the gods in the heavens heard my anguish and pain  filled screams as a plummeted to the cold dark planet below alone 
 startled and frightened by the visit illusions haunting my dreams I sometime  later awoke 
 opening my eyes ready to confront this unknown yet I could not see without the strength of your love I was simply  blinded
 searching you out I crawled in my misery across infinite measures of that cursed barren dirt
 time truly had stopped for me now A mere second seemed to last forever and I am quite certain that all time since the creation passed me by with every move I made all that seemed to make my heart continue to beat in its torn and ravaged state was my deep aching need for you but what was left of my being after that  cruel and uninvited storm was merely a shell of all that you loved 
 only you have the power to heal me to make me whole again I must find you I must keep moving forward however lonely and painful the strife maybe for we must be together once again as one, for that is how we are destined to be, soaring endlessly through the heavens soulmates hand in hand. The Sun kissing our faces in the moon caressing our backs
