Potential Fulfillment Lost
Finally… Found the one just needs waiting a minute
Words used, questions asked, finding her history, wants, needs
Not touching physically, yet finding a spot in the heart and mind
Like seeing the moist, green, luscious valley through the weeds.
Yes… Losing your self in thoughts of what might become
Knowing time must pass before the present is clear to see
Forgetting the presence of the mountain that must be moved
Realizing my heart and mind are being held in captivity
There… The plan is set the time is near
Only one more piece to make a perfect picture
Waiting on the news, heart is racing, mind is chasing
Praying, checking messages, waiting on the future
Slam!!... The door is shut with a vengeance
The picture is left unfinished, broken in fact
Heart breaking, mind searching, thoughts fading
The potential is lost to another uncontrollable act.
