The gift

I have always looked for someone…a soul… 

who would be peaceful enough to embrace my restless soul…

Someone who would see me the way I am…

Someone who would have enough room in his heart to put mine into it…

I looked so hard, till I got tired… hopeless…

I could only see darkness... pitch black...

I began to think it was only dreams and wishes...

That it is only granted to the lucky ones, and I was never one of them.

I thought I wasn’t meant to find this soul…

But out of the darkness… I found those eyes… looking at me… stripping me off everything with his gaze…

I stole a glimpse or two… wishing it would be real…  that I am not fantasizing it or hallucinating…. And to my luck, it was…

He was so dreamy I couldn’t believe he is true…

He was like water, so soft, yet slipping and strong. 

He stole my heart, from the early beginning... so early I couldn’t even understand it was actually happening…  

Like God finally took me back and that he was generous enough to gift me with him…

And whether things go right or wrong… I am thankful for knowing such a person…

Someone who doesn’t wish for things that belongs to other people… 

Content with whatever God decided for him…

Someone who has inner peace… who made me find my inner peace…

A man who is strong enough to admit his emotions… his sensitivity.. 

Who is not afraid to show me his vulnerabilities...

I will never be able to forget his gaze when he looks at me… 

And I hope I would be blessed enough to feel his gaze forever…
