Someday, Somewhere

Someday, somewhere, I shall meet you on the way,
Ordeal, I may feel, if you evade my stay.
My hands may twitch,
Earth may seem to sway,
Deep in my heart, I shall know,
All these times, I may be fixing myself for that day,
You will be standing there, and I shall fail to break away.

Someday, somewhere, when you face me by chance,
Offer me a helping hand,
Make me cross the lengthy path,
Exhaustive, I may get, don’t leave,
Without a glance.
Hold me in your arms,
Embrace me in your warmth.
Remind me of the love we had, ’cause this time,
Either I shall learn to let you go, or, shall engulf this delirious trance.

Not until, we are lost, do we begin to understand ourselves.

– Henry David Thoreau
