Love Poem: Homeless Strangers

Homeless Strangers

As fate would have it together they faced many dangers
In the beginning they were only merely strangers

Stars in their eyes did twinkle and dance 
Time stood still for a moment caught up in a trance
So many emotions were stirred with only one glance
Destined were their souls to intertwine in romance

A magnetic connection was growing stronger that they couldn't explain
Each encounter provoked enticingly tempting thoughts that were hard to contain
They shared an instant natural bond they didn't work to obtain
Connected through the cosmos their love was easy to sustain

Held the keys to each others hearts in the palm of their hands
Helped keep one another from sinking into quicksand
Two hearts were home beating as one it didn't matter if no one else would ever understand
One heart constantly seeking and pining for the other was never planned

They fit like a glove neither time nor distance did matter
For reasons unknown flower pedals of their love like confetti did scatter
Withered and weathered through seasons of change but won't shatter
Seeds of love planted still secretly grow despite chatter

Sailed through unchartered waters and explored new territory despite the risks and dangers
Such a pity to envision in the end with their hearts the others home they became wandering homeless strangers
