Love and Destiny

Sometimes I close my eyes and smile
I try to imagine what you will look like
I try to imagine how it will feel to hold you
With my eyes closed, I see your smile
Patiently I wait. Your love is my destiny
I know that we're close. Watch for me. 
Listen to every sound, especially voices
Pay attention to scent, you will smell me
Look into the eyes of strangers
You will find me. I'm already inside you
I already love you. I always have
