SOULMATES
Once in a lifetime someone special enters into
your life with a heart filled with love.

The days are warmer, the nights are shorter,
and everything in life is better.

The stars shine brighter against their ebony backdrop.

The sun brightens even the most dismal of days.

Rainbows appear out of nowhere showing
hearts of gold at the end of their colorful spectrum.

Your hearts are filled with joy but they ache
during the moments you are apart.

You find that the both of you are comfortable enough
with each other to discuss anything under the sun.

During those moments of silence your emotions
speak loud and clear from the heart.

Your eyes see the same visions, your minds think the same
thoughts, and your bodies feel the same excitements from
all the loving embraces.

The world before you, that was always seen
by your eyes, is now noticed in a whole new light.  

Happiness is felt just by the mere thought of each other.

At the times you feel most distraught you are calmed by
the soothing sound of each other's voice, comforted
by the words spoken with love.

You have just found what others dream of.
You have found your soulmate.
Hold them close, never let them go.

    I AM DEATH
I have been around since the beginning of time.

I am darkness and I am light.

I have been told of through stories, legends, poems, and songs.

I may be cheated but I always have the winning hand.

I am laughed at, joked about, and even mocked yet I always have the final say.

I am feared by many yet welcomed by some.

I am avoided and I am sought after.

I am on everyone's mind yet I am hardly thought of.

I appear in many forms yet the results are always the same.

Sometimes my means don't justify the end.

I have no prejudice against anything or anyone.

I affect the young and the old, the weak and the strong, the rich and the poor.

I begin where life ends.

I am DEATH - and I have come again.
