Breathless,

prematurely snatched from a dream

an alternate reality, a what could be

glimpses,

a place of belonging, a hole no key

passion, happiness, a soul set free

hope, future, positive possibilities 

Longing, sickening 

again to feel fated quickening

Fire raging not flickering

chances

glances

Beautiful eyes 

answers

out there, laid bare

all the time, everything, everywhere

half a lifetime to give

path to share

Revel in play

smile and laugh

seize the day, effortless graft

with care, feet forward

in prayer, head towards

what could be......
