Unnatural

It was so good to see you yesterday, however, I was sadden to hear the news about him.  As we sat there and talked, my mind traveled a million miles back in time.  To a time before him, when we use to compare notes about our dates and laugh at all the silly episodes.  
But, I remember when you met him, how peaceful you became, how happy you were.  Now here it is years later and your still as peaceful and happy.  The love you have for him looks beautiful on you even as you talk of the uncertainly of his health.  The love you share shows to every one.
As I wished you well and walked away, what you didn't know is I cried, as my insides were shaking with fear, because, I have been lonely for many years.  But, you learn to live with that type of loneliness, it becomes part of your life, natural.  
But, since I have met him, I understand the love you share, I know this love.  A love that is complimentary, healthy, where two persons become complete, the type of love that seems you have known each other for a lifetime and until you met you were not a whole.  
The fear is to lose that love and live with a loneliness that is not natural, a gaping hole in your soul that can never be mended.  
I shall pray for you and him, that you be prepared for the outcome, and that you never feel this loneliness that I speak of.
