| INVISIBLE THREAD |
| Separated by circumstance beyond my control Finally taken from my hands For I could not let go A cloud of sorrow hung above My heart was hard and heavy Wondering if I'd ever love How long 'fore I'd be ready After a time I tried again hoping to get it right I knew quite soon I was not content but still, I wasn't sure why Again I pursued that thing I knew for I'd held it once before Yet in my search for something true I felt it eluded me more Then off in the distance reflected light momentarily flashed Afraid to even trust my own sight Unsure of how to react It beckoned to me all the same this span of invisible thread It called for me, it knew my name and awakened what was dead The very flame I was searching for had been there all along Just waiting for the time to return and burning just as strong Then I knew - I belong to you It suddenly made sense Though in separate places, we still were glued by a bond of invisible thread |
