Awakening to You

A secret kept so well hidden
Yet in plain sight
For so many years
Kept at bay by the timing of life
Revealed at the mercy of the universe
And not a moment sooner
The fire was lit
The twin flames blazed
An awakening occurred 
That gave way to a new path
Untraversed and unfamiliar 
A story finally being written
That was a lifetime in the making
~
I’ve looked at you my whole life
But I finally opened my eyes
And saw you
