Fire and Ice

I waited
and I waited
With hope in my soul

hours
days
months
for what will be an eternity waiting

the sun rose and set
the stars shone bright and then went dark
the moon rose again 
Time became a marker of the intense pain

the anguish of our love and longing
the desire never far; so helplessly clear
The light in your eyes fading
hating myself for not knowing how to comfort you

all I heard was the silence between us 
the absence of your presence and touch
the distance and cold in your actions
 
My mind tried to forget you; but my heart wouldn't allow it
I saw your name and felt you everywhere; but couldn't reach you
I believed this to be some kind of sign

I am the fire to your ice; the smile to your laughter; the love you crave
We both know it to be true
Time does not change feelings 
No matter our distance in this life 

Days will pass mornings into nights
months into years
I will always carry us
in my silent private tears 

You can say scars are emotional wounds
My dear love you know this to well 
I could never stop dreaming of more
I refuse to write an ending for us 
If I never speak again I need you to know

You're still written lovingly
in the scars of my heart 
I will always be waiting for you

Eyes

It all started with a smile
A curious glance 
Lovely eyes staring back
Beautiful lips waiting to be explored

Your intense stare I always felt
Feeling your unspoken thoughts
The uncontrollable pounding of hearts 
Excitement and wonder in the air; as if no one but us existed

Your eyes looked into my soul 
My breath caught in my chest
My words unable to form while my body trembled
I could only look helplessly into your beautiful eyes 

It was then that I knew
I had found my match
Passion, chemistry, excitement
I would never find looking into another's eyes

For the rest of my life
I could not speak to a soul through my eyes
The conversations I've had with you
No words needed it was all there

I will forever walk into a room
And search for you 
The distance cannot change 
the feelings always there

In my dreams we still meet
I hear and feel your mind and heart
Hoping our telepathic conversations
Bring you back to me

I would spend a lifetime
Waiting for one more chance in time
to lose myself
In your eyes
