Two Souls

Just a single look at you

And my heart is filled with wonder,

I am dancing in the rain

A sailing ship now torn asunder.

Yet in this instant wreckage

I have also found my soul,

I watch your eyes turn into stars

And for the first time, I am whole.

I’ve never looked at you before

Never laid eyes upon such grace-

This love, ignited suddenly

My feet so willingly make haste.

I begin heading toward you

You look at me and smile,

I cannot turn away from this

These inches feel like miles.

At last I have reached you

And your soul stretches to mine,

It’s like I’ve always known you

I ask your name, our fingers twine.

I swear I’ll never leave you

In this moment, as we move on-

Your smile turns to butterflies

My heart bursts out in song.

The first time that I saw you

And every time since then,

I will love you until forever

A healed wreckage, safe within.
