Entering the arms of love

She cries inside not seeing what she desires to feel,

to be loved completely without a doubt in her heart.

Waiting patiently to uncover her dreams,

never going to sleep to keep from waking up.

Held by a rhyme without a way to explain,

as reasons become yesterday’s ghosts.

Eyes too blind to see what was coming,

a walk in the moonlight grasping her hands.

A feeling unlike any she has known,

makes his way to her in reality’s light.

Visions of emotions coming to greet them,

breaking change by changing their ways.



He watched as the years passed by to be alone,

in his heart there was someone who understood.

Walls built too high to allow another in,

fear of breaking apart his heart he fades.

He wanted so badly to know her name,

as time stopped, his life went on.

Reaching into the light where she played,

taking her hands into his own.

Together what was meant to be seen,

light love in arms colored in hope.

Kissing away the dreams they both expected,

finding comfort in each others arms.
