I was lost, afloat but adrift
I was trapped, with wings but clipped
I was asleep, stuck in a looping dream
I was gasping, though I knew how to breathe.

Then you shone a light, so I could see within
The fog vanished, and the curtains parted
I was repulsed, aghast, ashamed
But you never judged, just asked questions

Questions that needed answers
Questions that I had never asked
Questions that the world had forgotten to pose
Questions that I still struggle to grasp

What you mean to me, is the hardest question to answer
Soulmate, my one and only, my other half
These are just words, they are but bluster
My love is endless, my soul is now attached

It is a kite that has found a string, and now flies with the wind
A moon that swims the sky, scratched and pockmarked, yet dancing
A river that knows its mark, the sea, the abyss, the void
yet it tumbles and turns, meanders and churns

I gather the dust, I reflect the stars
I look further and further, within and without
I have no fear, of the dark unknown
I am touched by an angel, and she guides me home
