I had only one moment, one brief breath of time To gaze upon your face I read a lifetime in your eyes I remembered your childlike grace And though we never met before I've been missing you for years Vague remembrance in restless dreams Crying phantom tears With my hands so feeble and cold I reach to touch your tender skin Im longing for your familiar embrace Aching to feel your warmth again I close my eyes and kiss your lips My world stands still in time Countless decades of days gone by Come racing through my mind And yes, we are but strangers With so many stories untold But with that kiss i breathed you in Not knowing you, but your soul Through this eternity Ive lived many lives Searching endlessly for you Knowing our souls would meet again to begin our love anew But it seems that the fading centuries Have aged your memory And even as our souls embrace You don't remember me But I am as patient as the universe And i have the wisdom of my destiny One day your soul will wake your heart and bring our ancient love back to reality.

I like the span of this; the feeling of eternity. Knowing deep down that there is a timeless bond in love. Good stuff! |

'And though we never met before I've been missing you for years' This is beautiful Pout. I know who you are talking about and I know why this was said. Your feelings for him are always apparent even when there is a downfall..Keep you head up..Fate and Karma both deliver..Great Poem!!! Blessed Be, Beth |
