January 28

We walked a shared pathway together,
        discovered each other –
        discovered ourselves.

Strangers, on the threshold of meeting.
        Friends, in the process of developing.
        Lovers, sharing and embracing.

Different roads we both could take.
Decisions we together make.
I chose you, and you chose me.
Our path became our destiny.

The distance between us
ceased to exist.
We reached our destination,
        Said “goodnight” to dreams,
        gained knowledge of one another,
        touched, and
        grew to love each other.

Each step we took,
every thought we expressed,
        brought us that much
        closer to becoming.
Our journey will never be complete,
        but each step we make
        will always be taken together.

Like the first flower of spring,
        we evolved. We became.
Strangers on the threshold of meeting.
        friends, in the process of developing.
        Lovers, sharing and embracing.
