Completely surrounded
A constant din
Inside, feeling alone again
I can never go home again
Destined to carry another's sin
The emptiness echoed
Day after day
Pure pain I thought
Would never go away
Across the decades you thought of me
You longed for connection to set you free
My path crossed yours
Stars crossed and soared
Scars opened, revealing our damaged cores
A meeting of spirit, a meeting of minds
Never knowing a friendship so pure and so kind
Sudden understanding with no warning or sign
No longer alone, I'm yours and you're mine
