Night so dark, no light, all cold, so alone…
But wait what’s that in the distance
So small, so far away, yet warm and bright
The closer I get the warmer and brighter it gets.
Soon I see the details of this thing.
Sharp yet soft, bright with light yet translucent to my eye
I see my reflection in this thing…
Could it be , have I found my other half
So different yet so alike
This shining star, this jewel of the night sky
Yes, you were meant for me
Through the veil your light shines
So blinding bright, so pure and clean
The scent of you is everywhere
The air is thick and heavy
Time seems to have slowed
I can hear every beat of my heart
Rose petals fill the air like a gentle rain
Like the ocean waves lapping the shore in the early morn
I hear the rustle of your robe as you draw near
I am filled with peace
Yet giddy as a child come Christmas day
I stand in awe and wonder of your beauty
I hold my breathe
In fear that I might wake
And this is all a dream
Come, hurry, the anticipation makes me grow faint
My beloved
Come fill my arms
For in this moment the universe groans and trembles with anticipation
Of our union as one
For you are my bride and I am your groom
Today is the end of two lives and the beginning of one life
