Lucky...

You make me smile like I've seldom done before You give me a reason to want more and more...

Of you - of us any time - any where It doesn't matter as long as you're there...

In your heart and in your soul as much as in mine We have a connection that escapes time...

And probably logic as some people would say But it does not matter if we cannot be us today...

Or tomorrow for everyone to see because what we share is between you and me...

We cannot turn back time to another place when our lives were different and we didn't face...

The challenges of being together today... Our obstacles only lead us to find new ways...

To share a special moment or steal a little kiss... Something so special that many people miss -

Out on for their entire lives Not lucky enough to find That one person who satisfies their body and their mind...

We are truly special because we found each other no matter how hard it is to be together...

Right now atleast - We will find a way to see each other almost every day...

Until the time comes when we are free from our past decisions we will still be...

One incredible pair of people who share a special love and friendship too..

Unlike anything most people dream of achieving just once in this life it seems...
