A Fated Encounter

Exiled beyond a distance of measure

Unwilling to supply yet another example

To my tendency to commit to emotional tragedies

An attempt to sever myself from this legacy I created

From these moments where my life shatters

Removing myself from the opportunity

But you descended upon me gracefully silent

Somehow entering into these regions

Where my most valued contents rest

Exposed to you in casual virtue

Leaving the seeds of fate to cultivate

Unexpected curiously drawn to this place in me

Where the visions you planted now blossom

Touching so close that I can not contain them

Unable to prevent the hope that has taken root

These dreams that now flourish inside me

Of a perfect love natural in its zeal

Built on passionate kisses that grip from within

Driven by our internal exchange of the soul

And the secret deep unspoken connections that bind us

These are the voids you left vacant

An endless melody left to echo through me

That compels me to reach for a connection

Some evidence to confirm the aftertaste

That lingers past the absence of your company
