Yearning, Longing

                                                                  

How can two such loving mortal spirits

Belong so deeply, so intimately, to each other,

Be bound up so fervently, so devotedly,

In their own belief that earthly and spiritual joy

Emanate from the same immortal source,

Yet yearn so passionately for something else,

Something more, something greater,

Something transcendent?

 

Could it be that the something they long for

Is what they have longed for

Since long before they were born?

Could it be that the something they yearn for

Is a breath, a voice, a promise of rebirth

In a universe made eternal by their love?
