  My Lifetime Love, My One True Friend By: Bonnie Rae She laid her head upon his chest. A lifetime of mortal love, undying passion now comes to rest.
He holds her closer to him, Watches the wind unsettle her golden hair. Embracing a lifetime, Letting go just doesn’t seem fair. The first time they touched was all on fates chance. Taking his rough hands, she led him in their first dance. That captivating smile, Embedded in his mind. That comforting laugh Emerald eyes so kind. A lifetime ago they pledged their love and a kiss, under the willow tree.
He holds back stinging tears, for now he must set her, his truest love, free. Her breaths now grow quieter still. His heart breaks for she makes it whole. How can he live without her? Who now will have his soul? “We were meant for each other,” he whispers soft. “Not in this lifetime my darling love,” she weakly replies.
Tears fall from his eyes and he holds her dear. “I’ve always loved you,” he finally cries. She lastly speaks, “Do not weep my love for we shall meet again, This is only one lifetime and surely not the end.” You never say goodbye, But I’ll see you again. You were my lifetime love, You are my forever one true friend. This poem was inspired by two characters in one of my novels I am diligently working on finishing. Just thought I would share with you all!
