You and I as one

I have been searching for your touch,

now that I am left alone I beg,

for a hint of a sign you’re here,

hiding in the shadows looking at me.

I have waited for my whole life to know,

this scent, this feeling, this love,

creeping into my existence,

waking me up from the dreams of old.

I have lived so long only reminded of you,

in the rain showering my eyes with life,

the flowers that bear your name,

all light and love from your heart.

I have you where I have always needed you,

in my arms where nothing dies,

in my heart where love was formed,

in my eyes where you see me clearly.



You searched for me from the day time became,

lost on my way without a light to guide me,

broken under foot, buried within your eyes,

trying to speak your name.

You waited for me in our secret garden,

becoming who you are,

ready to give away,

everything that you are for me.

You have lived for so long just to know,

all that is beautiful in me is for you,

realms only appear for our desire,

hope is made in each others arms.

You have me where you have always wanted me,

in your sights where I am free to love you,

next to the earth where angels sing,

in your heart where I have always belonged.



You and I together under all things,

we come to understand,

love forged in our hands,

beyond what dreams can see.

You and I as one heart,

knowing what will come,

under new moon and sun,

where we will never be apart.

You and I will find inside,

hopes and fears the same,

love known in our pain,

past the tears we’ve cried.

You and I will see through the end,

as love becomes our light,

passion seen in our eyes,

as our love makes its way in.
