DESTINY
BY FIONA CUMMINGS
We were meant to be
You and me
As little kids we were
Would we have believed her?
If she said you will be together at fifty?
I believe in her
Like some kind of fairy God mother
As children I never wanted another
You were my hero
My best friend
My every breath
You are my vision
Like sign language for those who are deaf
You make me feel safe
When we are as one
Our minds are in the same place
When we were young
We were thrown into prison
Left alone
Apart from one and other
Then destiny struck
And parted us
I remember that day
There was so much fuss
Like a curse
sanity, poured from
us
leaving us insane
so much pain
our last penny tipped from a purse
we had died
left waiting for the Hurst
you were gone
left with your song
no longer we belonged
but she returned
saw how much we had burned
guided us in the right direction
it was up to us if we turned
and thankfully we did
deprived of affection
I could have hid
Among the prickly branches of life
But she took my hand
She showed me the light
She gave me the energy to fight
And you were a soldier
Wiser, older
And we met
She caught us in her net
Carried us off and gave us our freedom
We now have wings to fly
And again together
But this time forever
No one will tear us apart
As we share the same heart
We have been in love since the very start
Stronger we are
Have come so far
Battle wounds to show
But along this path of life we shall go
