Will tell you a story of two hearts

That went long paths to find each other.

In distant countries, dreams began:

Eldar and Chloe, a year asunder.

As children, many sports they did:

Shoot arrows, bicycling, and climbing,

Skateboarding, soccer in a field,

Some tennis, Tae Kwon Do, and "something".

That "something" was an important part

In kids' developmental journeys:

Console games they loved the most

And later e-sports also.

One summer, kids were meant to meet.

Adventure Day Camp provided grounds.

Creating memories as friends,

They went along in daily cháos.

As teens, she saw the world through lens.

She captured moments of darkness and light.

And he was practicing hand at paint,

Embellishing faces with bold designs.

Through art, expressing their thoughts.

Art piece ~ a language in itself.

Creative nature connects their souls,

Which yet to establish the bond.

Through high school halls, they'd both pass by,

Two years apart, with hearts that sigh.

They learned to love, to trust their friends

But waiting for miracle at the end.

They went through life; they learned some stuff.

Eldar ~ sports psych, and Chloe ~ design.

Yet life still held a twist in store,

As COVID struck, their hearts did soar.

Amidst the stillness of COVID,

Their hearts aligned; their fates entwined.

With skills to love and compromise

Their bond stood strong, no end in sight.

Chloe caught the bride's bouquet,

Means they would marry next.

A few months passed; their day arrived.

In February, they were wed.

Their hearts aligned, their fates combined,

The journey's ending gained thrust.

Two paths uniting into one,

Two "I's" became one "Us."
