Soul Mate

A soul can search a lifetime
with eyes that do not see.
I have found my half in you-
our love was meant to be.

Take my hand and walk with me,
our destiny awaits.
Our love will be our precious guide,
will journey to our fate.

Embraced within your tender arms,
I feel that I am free.
I have found my home with you,
your home is found in me.

These words truly took my breath away from the moment I read them out loud. I feel that they capture the true essence of the meaning of love. My greatest wish is to one day share them with a man that I love with all of my heart. Very highly recommended.
