Finding You Again

Has it really been twenty years, or is it an eternity?

Years went by, and there were times when I didn’t appreciate you.

Yet you were always there. Always.

Why did it take me so long to find you, when you were never really gone?

You had my heart, and I didn’t even know it.

You always knew.

You waited for me.

My love for you grew like a crystal, with sharp lines and cracks.

You had patience, washing away my defenses like a stream.

Renewed desire in my heart, my soul calls to you.

I just wish it hadn’t taken my so long to find you again.

Missed opportunities, missed years.

My love for you will never end.
