Two Halves of a Whole
Robin C. Bell 1987 (Maryland)
After our pasts did take their toll,
Our world's upside down begin to unfold,
Seems life's tribulations were turning us cold,
Everything around us spinning out of control,
Yet fate kept something our hearts it stole,
Then given to the other to mend and console,
A true feeling that neither ever thought to behold,
A love so real it can't be bought or sold,
Belonging together mind, body, and soul,
Two halves joined together now makes us whole,
A lifetime forever to have and to hold,
Eternally a vow we swear to uphold.
