The Old Mystery We Call “Love”
Isn't it strange—
in a world overflowing with faces,
with voices that brush past us
and names that dissolve with time—
that one person can arrive
and feel like they were written
into our story long before we learned to read it.
We meet thousands,
watch countless fade into the blur,
yet something in us still believes
one will stay.
What kindness it takes
to hold that hope close,
to trust the heart's compass
even when it spins.
But then a presence appears—
steady, familiar,
as if we've known their silhouette
in every lifetime before this one.
And suddenly the impossible feels simple,
the search feels remembered,
and the love we're born to find
steps forward
as if it has been finding us
all along.
