Reaching Toward Each Other

She wasn’t looking, but there he was
Waiting
A slight touch on her shoulder
sent a shock through
All of her

He said, “Be still my beating heart,”
and they both laughed
Never to go back
to the way things used
to be

No dream can match
this love of theirs
Not diminished
but greater with
Time passing

Those who have not
yet found
the other half
of their soul
Cannot understand

I hope they do
Some day.

Isn't it nice to think that everyone could know the feeling you've described ... never to go back to the way things used to be?

Yeah...sometimes I think too many people waste too much time in the past and don't know what they are missing by not moving into the future. I have no desire to "go back."
