The One

The One

The soul that finds its kindred twin

on this short walk on earth

is blessed by love immeasureable

and equally is cursed

The flame that reunites the two

and welds the painful break

is hotter than the rising sun

as it heals the sweetest ache

But when the time to come is here

and the earthly time is done

one must leave the other then

even knowing they're the one

I ponder when the time does pass

and the others time is here

will the flame that is my other half

wait for me over there

Will the hand of love reach out for me

and pull me across the flame

will the one who now completes my soul

know that I'd do the same?



Love big, love without condition, love forever
