All my life I searched the endless sky
Tracing your face on a star burned high
My eyes, which saw your name arrive from space
?Wept — or did the universe weep in that place
My eyes that forever looked past the brick wall
My eyes that kept watching for some distant call
They saw the letters of your name arrive
From infinite space where only voids survive
Why so late? I asked. You gave no sound
Dark as a black hole, silent as the ground
Yet I knew your meteors would light my night
That night which nearly killed my inner light
I bring you joy. You will believe
Two souls once wandered, lost, alone
Each thought no answer would be known
They met. And you will meet as well
Your story will break the loneliest spell
You are far and near — a slippery beam
But I will not move without my dream
Nothing is impossible — so I scream
Promise me: don't hide my joy
Don't veil my love, don't destroy
My being. Be my ally to the end
She was made for you before all time
She wandered homeless — like you, like a rhyme
That had no song. Today I give
You each to each. Now rise and live
No more sorrow, no more pain
Only joy from this day on
Your waiting, human, is finally gone
I give you to each other. Go now, forgiving
Walk together through the night, while living
No sorrow from this day — only joy for you
Only joy, and nothing less. The wait is done
Your long night ends. Go, now. You have won
