Maps

The connection between them was palpable
A fire burning bright
He felt like her puzzle piece
Each edge resting just right

Romance and passion filled her mind
Her heart fluttered with hope
This flame could be one of a kind

She longed to let go
A sweet surrender
A desire to love and be loved
A gift only he could bestow

Suddenly, a sea spans between them
They feel worlds apart
The flame going out
Her heart growing dark

With a few simple words
Her heart could be crushed
Without a warning
All in a rush

She begs to be with him
To have him follow the map
All that she wants is for him to make his way back
