Has there ever been a lifetime
...when we didn't instantly recognize one another?
...when one or the other of us didn't wonder if THIS time we would get it right?
...when we didn't HOPE that our children would be siblings instead of friends?
...when we didn't reach the heights of ecstasy and the depths of despair?
...when we didn't get our timing wrong?
...when we weren't both left hurting?
Will there ever be a lifetime
...when we don't instantly recognize one another?
...when we don't wonder if THIS will be the right lifetime?
...when our children are siblings in addition to being friends?
...when the heights of ecstasy and the depths of despair are just normal hills and valleys in our relationship?
...when we get our timing right?
...when we are free to love one another openly?
Someday... There has to be a lifetime for us.
