Soul mates

Sometimes in a lifetime

you meet someone that will mean something special to you

Your soul recognizes a kindered soul

You know this is someone special.

This happened to me many years ago when I was 16

I met my best friend and soul mate

We had so much fun!

Then some years later

my soul mate found a Danish lad and moved with him to Denmark

I found my English lad and brought him home with me to Norway

we had finished school, got jobs, got married, had kids

Our days were busy

and the physical distance between us seemed impossible to overcome

still our souls were connected

every now and then we sent letters filled with longing

Then there was email

and the communication became more frequent

once more we became a part of eachothers everyday life

Even though we rarely met in person

I remember picturing the two of us in the future

when our kids got older and more independent

and we slightly middle aged

then we might be able to meet

more regularely.

And now we're there

Tomorrow I'll meet my soul mate in Denmark

No husbands, no kids, off work

just two 41 year old 16 year olds!
