My homeland is not of the world

Been a long time since I've been here. WEnt through my email trying to find my old poems, and find a link back to this site

I wrote this poem towards the begining of this year. It's a poem to my future wife (whomever she may be). It doesn't ryhme (atleast most of the time), but it's meant to convey what I felt that night. After half a year, it is still unnammed. I'm thinking something along the lines of "need", "alone", or simply her name when I know it.

My heart is the ocean waves
restless in their constant motion
empowered by the mere thought of you

My mind is the mustang
cutting throug hthe wind
in the constant search for the one
who has captivated it

My eyes are the scourching fire
consumed by the burning desire
of the relentless hunger ignited
for the sight of you

My ears are the mighty canyon
cut off from the music of the world
in dier agony
to echo the melody
of your enchanting voice

My life is a vast desert
constantly expanding through the seasons of time
fulfilled in the sence of what it is
created and sustanied by Almighty God
and yet, somehow, seemingly incomplete
without the oasis of your love.

I am half a man
a nomad in a barran land
in this land of love which no man may master.
I have no place to lay my head
so I serch for instead
the one with whom I shall no longer roam
but declare with you, I am finally home.
