Longing

I long for the day my eyes fall upon yours, 

strangers in a room full of people yet I am all you see. 

The fear of how to approach me makes you motionless, 

but the greater fear of not having me makes you move forward. 

In an instant my heart recognizes you, 

it sees what it has longed for yet never obtained. 

But it fears what may come, because scars still remain. 

You whisper to me, 

I see your pain and I am here to take it away. 

Because just as your heart recognized mine, 

my heart does the same.

Very moving and beautiful write Natalie. It really connected with me and the way I sometimes view life as surreal and not always black and white, a very enjoyable read

when two hearts meet love is blind you enter in to one another
your souls make love solace you find
