Soul Mates

One day I met a friend, never knowing I would be with her until the end. She and I gave each other so much life, I asked her to be with my wife. We had our good and bad like everyone else, But I knew that we’d have each other And there would be no other. The footsteps that we shared, could make Us get through whatever because we cared. It wasn’t easy over the years And we cried many tears. When you give yourself to someone else, You two become one, That is why I have done what I have done and I know Nancy was the only one. If this was God’s fate that’s ok Because she will always be my soul mate.

I love you Nancy and will see you again.
