Written In The Stars

How long this love lie waiting so dormant,

Haunted from within by an unknown torment;

Long did I hopelessly search for you,

So much time slipped away, doubts only grew;

True love how often so carelessly spoken,

But finally as one we can be unbroken;

Hearing your name invokes such intense feeling,

Together but silent the unspoken so revealing;

Created for each other, intertwined by fate,

Intoxicated with visions of a future so great;

Apart from you there is agony and pain,

Darkest of nights, or a cold winter rain;

Impractical, rare, only once in a lifetime,

Sadly we never experience the sublime;

Maddening anticipation no one could hide,

My heart now bleeds never opened so wide;

I believe we can love despite all our fears,

We can laugh, we can cry, wipe away all tears;

You are my impossible, insane, and unreal,

The love of my life, so high and ethereal;

We are not them, we will never compare,

For living the norm only leads to despair;

We need no lesson about how it should be,

Our journey is one of a new reality;

Others will envy, deny what is ours,

Love never broken but written in the stars.
