I Found You

Jumping from cloud to cloud Watching the stories of life unfold The grass green and just the slightest breeze The sunshine made us feel alive Stories written in the heart with the soul tipped pen Reaching out for you, no matter the lifetime we’re living in I found you before I ever met you I found you in the letters sent in the days of old I found you between the lines in this book of poems I found you everywhere I never looked On the pages of every story written in every book I found you right when I had given up hope Right when I got comfortable living cold I found you only after I had buried myself I found you only after I bared my soul I found you and finally, I don’t feel alone I found you and I had been looking for so long Between the notes in every song In the early light when night turns into morn I found you in every carved name surrounded by a heart In every whisper between lovers late at night In the wanting and hoping of lovers apart I found you before I ever met you And I never knew All along I had been yearning for you It’s always been you And it always will be you From The Heart to Love
