In a lifetime
Can a mind think so much
Of another so beautiful and sweet
Can a heart long so hard
After another so captivating and deep
Can a soul feel so close
To another who makes you so complete
This feeling I cannot explain
Never had it before, it's quite divine
Longing to see you every day
What can I say, words cannot define
Taking your hand in mine
Would be enough to settle my mind
Kissing your soft lips
Would be enough to settle my heart
Waking up with you in my arms
Would be enough to settle my soul
In a lifetime, who is so lucky to be afforded this opportunity of once and forever feeling whole
