Soulful Solitudes
In shadows cast by the setting sun's grace,
A solemn groom, with a silent embrace,
He contemplates the path they now tread,
His heart aches quietly for the words unsaid.
His bride, with a heart so pure and true,
But a longing within, known to very few,
She walks through life with a half-hearted soul,
His subtle sadness, a growing toll.
She needs instruction for each step to take,
Her reliance on guidance, for love's sake,
He doesn't ask for her to do it all,
Just yearns for her to heed his heart's call.
In his eyes, there's an unspoken plea,
For her to perceive his dreams, to truly see,
To share in the journey, hand in hand,
Not just as an observer in life's grandstand.
He longs for her to embrace life's dance,
Not just go through the motions, in a trance,
To understand without the need for a guide,
To stand beside him, fully on love's tide.
For it's not perfection he seeks in her heart,
But the depths of her love, an essential part,
He hopes she'll grasp the unspoken quest,
And love with a whole heart, at their very best.
In this union, he yearns for her to find,
A willingness to grow, both heart and mind,
To meet him halfway, to bridge the divide,
In love's embrace, where their spirits reside.
Though this yearning resides in his heart's core,
He knows love's journey holds so much more,
With patience, he'll guide, with love he'll abide,
In hope that she'll someday walk by his side.
