That's been through lifetimes. And will be into eternity! But why is it that. Only I feel so? How much longer,. Will I have to wait.

Different lives, different stories,. Different ways and means,. To find each other. Scripts that contain a myriad hues. And so full of mystery today,. Only to unravel as the days pass. And each of us doing. On the stage,we call -. I may forget my lines,. Miss my cues,. All I know is that I come alive. And make contact,.
