You and I are connected <br />in a way that goes beyond romance, <br />beyond friendship, <br />beyond what we've ever had before. <br />It has defied time, distance, <br />and changes in ourselves <br />and in our lives. <br />It has defied every explanation. <br />Except one: <br />Pure and simply, we're soul mates. <br /> <br />I can't explain, I just feel it. <br />It's there in the way my spirits lift <br />whenever we talk. <br />The sound of your voice brings me home, <br />in a way I can't explain. <br />It's in the delight I feel, when we laugh <br />at exactly the same things. <br />When I'm with you, <br />it's like a tiny piece of the universe <br />shifts into place. <br />A place it's supposed to be, <br />and all is right with the world. <br /> <br />These things and so many more, <br />have made me understand <br />that this is a once in a lifetime, <br />forever connection. <br />A connection that could only exist <br />between you and me. <br />And deep in my soul, <br />I know that our relationship <br />is a rare gift. <br />One that brings us <br />extraordinary happiness <br />all through our lives.<br /><br />Zenia Sheikh<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-and-i-42/
