I've tried to detangle you
From those numerous questions
Where at times you seek refuge and hide
I've searched near and far, in silence an strife
Sometimes you are so spontaneous
And come to me in urgency
In those do or die situations
And yet you elude me at times
To make me think and ask why? 
Yet at times you wake me
And arrive in the dead of night
Sometimes even giving me a fright! 
Like a light switched on, without a sound
Something you've said something so profound
Like an arrow you dart, straight from the heart
And quieten those beats, in a loop
They bind and enter my mind
Till I find you sometimes in the middle of what I say
Even at times when my thoughts race through the day
You are sometimes literally, the answer to my prayer in my despair 
I seek you in those far away looks as you help me repair!
