Empty Rocking Chairs and a Shattered Heart

They said that it would come
At the time I'd least forsee
That if I just stopped looking
I'd find the heart meant for me

I never could believe
I never did expect
That in one person I'd find
Love, honor and respect

But there you were waiting
With the love I never thought I'd find
"You had to have made each other in labs"
Our people often opined. 

Joy, laughter, and love
Bickering and silly fights
Every second of our togetherness
A highlight of my life

But nothing perfect can last forever
And the same was true for our love
Now when I miss you
I have to look to heaven above

The dreams that we shared
The visions of our life
Knowing that I'll never 
Have the honor to be your wife

We'll never have the home 
Or the matching rocking chairs
We'll never get forever
As one of histories great pairs

Two imperfect people
Yet, perfection from the start
I'm left with visions of empty rocking chairs
And a completely shattered heart
