Strangers

Life lived as strangers,

we were unknown to each other,

but felt the longing for each other.

And I wonder how close 

we may have came to each other

in that life lived so long ago now?

And you said to me:

I would have known you were mine.

And that made me smile

because we were strangers for a time.

But now we are together,

no longer lost, but found and

so close to being completed;

the beginning of the rest of our lives,

no longer strangers, but family 

as it always has been 

under our skin and in our souls.

You brought me here,

my portal, my mother, my twin.

We learned our lessons and now

we get to enjoy ourselves together

for the rest of our lives.

No longer strangers,

I'm coming home.
