Us Two?

Fill this lonely darling
take this void and Ill mend yours too
We walk on opposites sides of this road
  aimlessly spacing out sidewalk gazing
our feet shuffle apathetic to the directions we're headed

A lovely thought-these streets meet and there you are....
your eyes shine the neglected light my mirror knows so well
A smile forces its way across your face
Mine is there too and now there is a feeling of two

A hand in mine~~ our steps seem certain...
talking as we go-the direction is toward one another
The breeze blowing gentle wafts the scent of your hair
    ---and here I realize my senses are returning
As our lips touch, you gasp-knowing the same...
   If forever is a fairytale that no love would ever see
     ...lets take our time now and weave it into eternity

This soul is searching for one as bruised but resilient as mine
....yours is seeking a partner in this trying lonely time
  Lets you and I join as one and walk stronger than before
A force the world will coldly walk upon no more
....soothe my scars, and wrongs, and pain
      ....I'll shatter the walls those things have done to you
          ....We'll be cleansed in this night walks rain
               ....no more wondering lonely souls....
                    Just us newfound blissfull two
