Destiny

This love of ours is destiny
God brought that love to you and me
He did not falter in His task 
He brought us more than we could ask

Until we met, life was about
Confusion, searching, constant doubt
When we met, we found much more
Love for us, an open door

Both mentally and physically
It was the best for you and me
Before I found you, we were lost 
The lives we had, were turned and tossed

Our giving selves were not received
The love we gave was not retrieved
We found each other, lives renewed
And with a different attitude

We looked beyond how life had been
And we, together, did begin 
A life for half a century
A miracle, our destiny

Now you are gone, and I'm still here
The love we knew, I still hold dear
Every day, I think of you
And I wonder what to do

What we had, gave us our all
You are not here for me to call
Without you here, I'm only part
The half that's you, still in my heart

You and I have much to give
To be in other's lives to live
To be involved, to satisfy
Always together, you and I

Would love to find someone like me
To share the love that others see
Who now are one, with love to share
To be together, should I dare?
