One Heart, One Hope

Once I had hoped that my thoughts

Would transcend the vast distance

And space between us

Maybe a thought or hope

Would become tangible

In its effort to be noticed

A word here or there

A subtle nuance

Revealing my true feelings

Carried on the wind

Or written in the stars

Would reach you

And you might understand ...

But you were not open

To my need of you

Or perhaps not aware

You did not hear me

Or my words

You did not feel my presence

Oblivious to how I felt ...

Perhaps you knew

But did not want to know

Or did not care

How would I have known?

You did not say

You should have said ...

But now is it too late?

Since you come to me again

And your warmth
Touches my heart
And comforts me again ... 

For that was once 

And in the past

When I put aside

All of my dreams

And remained

One heart, one hope

Alone but together in my singularity

My future, always one of uncertainty ...
