• Ever since their wedding
    Stars have glittered in your eyes
    Love makes float like a feather
    Your touch turned soft as heather
    You can't wait till we too tie the knot
    A year and a day?
    A lifetime?
    I ask
    Nay eternity
    You reply
    Eternity!
    Forever is a long time
    Things change from this life to the next
    Suppose we are reborn brother and sister?
    I care not
    You say
    I love only you
    Suppose we are born on opposite sides of the world
    I will find you
    You reply
    Suppose I am not born till 10-20 years after you
    I will wait for you
    You say
    I love only you
    Why?
    You say it feels as if we have done this before
    So why not make it eternal
    Even though days feel like years
    When I am with you
    And the time we have spent feels like a lifetime
    My soul quivers with fear
    For the reasons I listed above and more
    Two souls tethered together
    Forever
    To only feel pain when we are apart
    To feel no joy from a lover's touch
    Such dependency
    To wait a lifetime for someone who may be born the day after you die
    But with you I feel peace in my soul
    I worry not if you will leave
    I am complete
    I would never betray you
    Even when tempted by another
    Who holds a small piece of my heart from different time
    Different place
    I was a different person
    Whose soul knew no peace
    With you I feel whole
    Maybe you are the other half of my soul
    And soul rules over heart, mind, and body
    So will I commit our souls to eternity together
    Time will only tell
    Forever is not something to be taken lightly
    But I love you
    And that is all that matters
