The Wandering Heart

a restless heart untethered and free
wanders the world seeking its true love
with every beat it longs to find the key
to unlock the passion it’s dreaming of

it drifts through cities and barren lands
searching for someone to understand
the depth of its ache the tremble in hands
the pull of desire like sinking quicksand

one day it meets a kindred soul
two hearts collide a perfect match
together they burn complete and whole
their love a fire they cannot catch

for in each other they've found their place
no longer lost in the endless chase
