A Poem for Your Enjoyment

Today I am going to do something a little different. If I get more requests, then perhaps I can make it a weekly feature, we'll see.

For those who don't know it, I am also a poet. Some of my poems have been published in anthologies, but the vast majority of my work is being saved for possible publication someday. Today I will share you one of my compositions, one I hope will express how finding true love completes both partners. Feel free to share it with your special someone, I won't mind; I'm waiving my copyright and making it public domain:

YOU COMPLETE ME

For as long as I remember, I felt a void within:
A never-sated hunger - life waiting to begin.
I was an empty vessel, a song without a beat;
Somehow I understood well I was still incomplete.
The searching took forever, my quest seemed without end;
On the verge of surrender, no hopes left to defend:
“Perhaps that part I’m missing was but a fallacy?”
But as I was conceding, you came and set me free.
I realized there and then you filled the void I had.
My soul had tasted Heaven; my friends thought I’d gone mad!
My heart was filled with laughter, and everyone could see
The love we share together says how you complete me.

Please remember that true love is the most precious and rare treasure of all. If you have found it, you are indeed blessed. And if you haven't then please don't be discouraged! Your ideal match could be just around the corner; you just have to be patient and open to the possibility.

Cheers!
