Her hand in mine

I believe the more one has, 
the more one has to lose, and
I felt that I had gain so very much 
in the meeting of her.

I prayed that I could treat her
in the ways that would have her
stay in my life for a long time 

Who can say what life and 
our time together had in store,
but the one who knows all, 
and brought us together.

I believed that he had  
put her hand in mine 
as he had put 
my hand in hers, 
for a reason.

It was my prayer that 
we would take this gift and 
make the most of it 
that we could together as one.

Sometimes, 
no matter how hard your work,
and how bad you want, 
thing just aren't meant to be,

This was the story of her and I.
