Two lost souls who found each other

Against the odds

This is our story, the story of two people lost in this crazy world; a world where no-one would listen, where no-one would care, a world where we were just drowning, drowning in air. But against the odds, we found each other; against all of the odds, two people, not looking, not searching for anyone, not believing there was anyone to find, found each other, we found each other in this crazy mixed up world, against the odds.

But the odds, yes the odds, they are still there, still against us. ‘Why?’ You might ask, ‘you found each other against all the odds.’ Well, 3000 miles, 3000 miles apart and two governments that can only see us as a drain on their resources. Her Government, who tells the world, ‘all people are welcome to our shores!’ all except me that is! And my government, a government who has just given asylum to a group who hi-jacked a passenger jet a few years ago. A government who insists the woman I love must be able to support herself here yet wont let her work until she can prove she can support herself, somewhat of a contradiction.

Two people, two ordinary people who found love 3000 miles apart

If we were rich, or even richer, there wouldn’t be a problem, but we’re not. All the governments see is that we are a drain on their national resources, and what can we say to that; we’re just two ordinary people, who found love 3000 miles apart, two ordinary people who have lived lives full of hurt and full of pain. Two ordinary people who found each other against the odds, two ordinary people who just want to live our ordinary lives in an ordinary town.

But we know, deep down we know in our hearts we may never be together, we may never live ordinary lives, in an ordinary town, because we are not rich. We can’t afford to prove we can live in each others country, we can’t even afford a plane ticket, but we have this. Just this, a cheap computer capturing a few moments each day, a few moments where our hearts join, a few moments when all the years of pain and hurt just disappear. Just a few moments.

We found each other in this crazy mixed up world, a world where no-one would listen, where no-one would care; we are not asking for much out of this life. We just want to spend the rest of it together, that’s all nothing more!

And my heart breaks

Hey guys, I know how you feel, been there! Why don’t you set up a website and tell your story. Maybe you could ask for donations, a dollar here a dollar there, it will soon add up. When you consider, there was that girl who wanted the breast implants, well she raised the money, why can’t you? Even if it just covers the air tickets, it’s worth a go.

Hey, I just thought I would stop in and say hello. Your situation sounds pretty dismal but not hopeless. My advise would be to never give up hope. Have faith that everything is happening for a reason, and it will all work out in the end.

Also, I think I agree with the gentleman who posted ahead of me. I personally could not send much, but every penny would help. I would be willing to send 5 or 10 dollars, if you would let me know how to do this. I hope that I am not insulting you with this offer, I mean well.

Anyway, if I can be of help, somehow, let me know.
