Fate

You haven't read my mind, though it seems so all the time
The truth is, perhaps, that you are my mind
A part removed for so long, to be found again
A part that I am so blessed to have found

It will likely never cease to astound, this feeling
This feeling I can't deny in spite of myself
A feeling that I thought I had had before but only
Caught a fleeting glimpse on the banks of a lonely life

I fear delusion, I fear the deceit of my own mind
I fear that the loneliness has made me see
Something- an oasis where there is only emptiness
But I will never allow fear to govern me

Into the stream of emotions we have created
I plunge headfirst, ready to sink or swim
Knowing that you are doing the same, ecstatic
YOU are doing the same

I almost want to hold my breath, stop time
If I stop time here, there will never be hurt
Yet, there also would never be
You and I, together, real, solid

Fate works her magic in ways so mysterious
Leading two souls on a pathway
That seems to lead only to hurt
But leads to something real

My soul is beside itself, until I may
Touch your hand, look into your eyes
Kiss you with everything that I am and find myself
Wrapped in your arms, not just in your thoughts

I think that I have not lost my mind
I have found it.

It is well-written and easy enough to read...(although I must ask... why is the font so big?) For some unknown reason I can't help but think of this as having a bit of romance... I wonder why..?

I like this thought as it rings true I think for so many who give into that fear and just settle.

"I fear that the loneliness has made me see
Something- an oasis where there is only emptiness"

This was a wonderufl piece I enjoyed being able to read the thoughts that flowed with honesty and without hesitation.

I like your thought process in this piece. It's like listening in on a private call between you, and you. Very creative. It reflects the endless search for self and belonging. Rain..
