When Two Find Us

I laughed at absurdities 

While we were strangers

You smiled knowingly

When I hear your voice

It is a familiar song

How do we know each other?

Within our hearts we know

Two are actually one

Our eyes search the room

Stirring our souls when they meet

What is the source of knowing?

Is it endowed by God?

Are we adrift in an ocean

And meet by chance?

Is this an ancient gift

From another life?

It is rare and precious

What does it require?

It stirs a yearning inside
Beyond circumstances

Outside of time

This open door

Connects our souls
And two find us
