I saw her...
Finally, for the first time.
Her, this woman that....
That carries my heart in her hand.

Did she?
I don’t know, too far away..
Will she?
Oh gosh, I certainly do hope...
Hope desperately she will...
For...once she does....we will..

I have to...
I must do it...do it now..
For in just a flash, a glimpse..
She could be gone again..
Into the light...far away..

I will...I must...
Scream...scream three words...
Will her ears hear my cry, my plea.
Will her heart be open to receive...
my devotion, my love, my existence..

I can’t...simply can’t..
Can’t bear not having her here..
Here with my dreams, my hope.
Within my life, even if only...
If only for a moment, a second..

If she does...
Does come into my life..
Does say yes....she hears my call.
Take my heart into her arms..
Hold me as I hold her..

Then...only then...I will
Live.....breath...exist in this world.
For...without her...life is not.
And I cannot bear that pain.


Hear my cry....hear my words...
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!

Barry, this is a unique style and a change of pace for you.  Well done, I might add.  Enjoyed ever so much this evening...did she hear you?

Magnus...The heart of a soulmate always hears the heart of a soulmate. Your heart's cry rings throughout eternity and it must reach the heart that matches yours. LOVED the openness, the nakedness of your words.

May love and light always shine upon you!
