Before

Have I lived this life before?

It feels as if I have been here before.

As if I’ve felt your stare before.

As if I’ve known your touch before.

Have I lived this life before?

Have I been here before?

At odd moments of the day I find myself reaching for you.

Reaching for your hands.

Caressing your face,

I find myself getting lost in your eyes.

Have I lived this life before?

Have I been here before?

Your name eludes me

Your presence seems so real.

My love, my heart, words don’t do justice how you make me feel.

My heart longs for you.

Almost as if it knew you.

Have I lived this life before?

Have I been here before?

Your love envelopes me.

Although visions of your face runs away.

You are the one.

You are my hiding place.

The lighthouse to my ship on stormy seas.

I lay my head on your chest and all my problems flee.

Have I lived this life before?

Have I been here before?

I don’t know.

But I know I never want to be rid of you.

I know I can’t wait to meet you.

I know I can’t wait to hold you and for you to hold me.

So even if I have never been here before,

Even if I have never lived this life before.

I take pleasure knowing that

I will soon meet you.
