Foretold Love

I’ve seen you once or twice
in the echo of night.
I had watched you wave and
smile and say hi. I’ve
heard the boost of your laughter,
heartily and true, yet the
gentle light that shines from thine
eyes does call me night after night.

I have yet to touch those
sweet hands of flesh or
that heart of gold. I have yet to
whisper a word into your ears
only to hear your chuckling remarks.

I have yet to put my hands
in thine and know our future
will be okay. I have yet to place
my head on your shoulders and
say, thank you for being my
friend, or that you have a
booger hanging from your nose.

I have yet to witness the
sweat on your brow and the light
of your charismatic smile. I have yet
to intertwine my life with your own.

I have yet to notice your
presence in this busy life,
yet; I thank God for the day I shall love you forever
