Meant to Be


Fear, Loneliness, fragmented,

relationship is with utmost uncertainty.

It plays games with you to the point of frustration.

Looking at the mirror ahead,

Do I even see me? Or is it someone who share the same complexion.

Eyes beaming back with worry and self-doubt,

My love took charge and now together we will conquer.

 

He took me away from all the unnecessary pondering and said:

“But don’t worry, life comes with excitement, hope and wonder”

Dive into the unknown and experience what life has to offer.

Take every step as a learning experience and I will guide you along the way,

And make the best even during the worst.

You swept me off my feet as we soar into the unknown,

Take a leap of faith and never regret.

You embraced me from danger that lurks in every corner,

Taking a vulnerable heart and assembling it into a masterpiece.

Our hand entangles as we dance together into the future.

 

We will grow old, and we will wither,

But at least we are in this together and forever.

I am glad we met and fell in love together,

Like a flower going through its life cycle.

I started out as a vulnerable seed and blossomed with your care,

With love and nurturing, I learned to love myself and strive beyond the soil boundary.

You became my water, my air, and my light.

You are my everything and you are meant for me.
