Kismet

awakened
from a long,
deep sleep
my heart
whispers
its destiny
the mind
listens
but avoids
any emotional
response
lifetimes
echo back
to the present
resonating
with love
and forgotten
passion
there is
no escaping
this outcome
my logical
defenses
are failing
a bond
forged long ago
emerges
once again
i cannot
hide anymore
in your shadow
let fate's arrow
finally
hit its mark
open heart
empty mind
