the deepest of the lonely

I gave you my heart

I could not help it

To me, it wasn’t even a gift

But a sheer necessity

Because you are the vibration

That reverberates within me

And so, of course

All the forces in the Universe

Conspired to bring us close

Last night you told me how lonely you were

I recognise this place

Where the missing vibration is sounding out

So powerfully

Like a deep echo

That just pulls you

Deeper and deeper into the quagmire

And inside your eyes I saw it

This deep sadness and longing

When first we ‘met’

So now

If I give you my heart

And this love

Slowly tears me apart

Its is my heart that you are awakening

Its my soul that now knows itself

To be no longer

As lonely

As the deepest of the lonely
