The Longing for Life

My soul has longed for a true connection

and the soft voice tells me not yet, trust in me;

My heart aches for a true love, caring, longing for my peace

and the soft voice repeated not yet, trust in me;

My mind shifted.

My life about to shut down

and the soft voice pleaded no no not yet, trust in me;

The horizon beamed, gleamed as if on fire

While that same soft voice whispered it is time to follow your destiny.

The light shone brightly and my journey of a lifetime has begun.

Each day since the day I met you that same soft voice whispers…I told you to trust in me.
