And Words Are All I Have To Take Your Heart Away

The bus stop. Their hands touched. Tingling feeling of love. 

***

“Happy Valentine,” he said. She turned and her burns scarred his soul.

***

Years of separation. One meeting and she was his again.

***

The only thing that kept her breathing was his voice saying, “I love you.”

***

Their eyes met and he knew this will be a journey of a lifetime.

***

Her scarred life. His smiling eyes. The magical journey.

***

The father wheeled the bride in. The groom took the rails and said, “I do."

***

Her pink robe. His black suit. Their rainbow filled life. 

***

Ever Mine. Ever Yours. Ever Ours. 

***

She touched his face and wiped away the tears. He closed his eyes as she walked away.
