The instant our eyes met,
A bond was formed
That would weave through our lives
Nurturing our connection
Onto eternity
For every word spoken
Thoughts, silent and unformed
The bond strengthens
The connection transformed
Into a timeless kinship bond
As a youngling from a whole
I became
The intricate parts of you
A woven tapestry of my life
As the magic of our connection unfolds
It should be a lifetime
Yet nothing lasts so
Your humour, your belly laughs,
Your heart, authentic and contradictory
Marks an unforgettable existence
In a dazed state
Your hopes, dreams and fears
A flashing scene before my eyes
A rage builds in my heart
As I contemplate the power of time.
