HEART AND SOUL



When we met a chance encounter,
Unplanned fate or destiny?
   I thought it was epic, something
Meant to be.

   An unexpected good fortune,
How could I dismiss it?
   I was swept away,
I hate to admit it.

   It took my breath away,
What a surprise.
   What I saw was each
Other in our eyes.

   I was struck by the wonder,
This was something real.
   Now it's become my,
Achille's heel.

   It was so rare and
Deeply intense.
   I never thought our love
Would die and ferment.

   I marveled at the encounter
And the uniqueness.
   Your my,  poison,
My living weakness.

   I knew it would never happen again,
This blessing I stumbled upon.
   I never considered our love,
You would pull the plug-on.

   I assumed, I was right place,
Right time.
   I recognized the merging
As sublime.

   I remember that spontaneous moment,
When the world stood still.
   Now, the after-taste of a
Dead love's bitter pill.

   It was an experience beyond
My control.
   I loved her with all
My heart and soul.
