Heart of Another

Because love yearns and in its yearning
searches each sunrise and sunset
to find another, to join in timeless beauty
to find a warmer glow... gleaned from a lonely heart
when a pause comes,  from a welcoming smile
and emotions express exhalations
from every pulsating passion that love pursues
with its deepest gnawing hunger
        when its orbs look deep 
into the unscared landscape of innocent dreams
that invite a warm breathless kiss
exposing vulnerability,  wrapped in the hands of comfort
when lovers walk in secured silence
across the winding wishes of wanted wonder
leaving their fading footsteps
to lay lightly on the dusk of their traveled days
when they never looked away from their horizon
filled with sunrises and sunsets
from the day love's yearnings were filled
in a pause, from a smile
         from the heart of another who also yearned
to find love's timeless beauty

I know you meant this as romantic love (the song is so appropriate), but my personal mood placed it elsewhere, where a changing relationship fits. Beautiul!
