WHY

I often wonder -- when two people find a special kind of love, the kind that is so intense the kind that when you look at each other you both know no matter what, you will never leave each other.
No matter how bad the hurt, no matter how angry the argument, you will mend it together.
You are true soul mates. You have found something that most people only dream of. Something that gets even better as the years go by in spite of any problems that may evolve. Two soles entwining over the years to become like one and you both know that nothing but death will ever pull you apart.
Tell me how then, is one suppose to go on without the other?
I am but half a person without my significant other. My heart is incomplete, it is only half there he has taken the other half with him in his departure and there is nothing left to give to anyone else.

This kind of love is like a fairy tale, a love truly made in heaven a special gift from God. Yet when it ends it leaves the one left behind only half whole.
That is why I have often wondered -- why doesn't the Lord in his infinite wisdom let these kind of lovers leave this world together.

Wouldn't that be the merciful thing to do. Wouldn't that be the perfect ending? The merciful ending.
