Latent Love

Something in you cries out to me,

Calling to a deep and hidden part,

And something in me longs to respond,

And Love you from within, from without,

From the heart.

Another facet~ another dimension~

Another layer~ teeming with life!

Pulsing with energy, wonder, and wholeness,

Burning with Love, and its beautiful light,

And I did not know it was there at all!

I didn’t imagine; I could not guess

That such an all consuming flame

Could blaze within me

From a simple, “Yes.”

So thank you for dreaming me into existence,

For fearfully, wonderfully making me yours,

For awaking my heart,

And drawing me to you,

For loving me, for caring,

As my heart still stirs…
