Awakened
|  | 
In every pairing lies a secret 
like thunder and lightning, 
sun and moon —
The spark of your longing
the void of my silence
lightning happened.
one burns, the other reflects.
It's hard to be understood 
that we are not meant to be alike.
We were meant to fit
the space each other leaves behind.
that we are not meant to be alike.
We were meant to fit
the space each other leaves behind.
The spark of your longing
the void of my silence
lightning happened.
but both illuminate the earth.
I spoke. I felt. I loved.
This is a sign and signs do not lie. 
Not when they awaken
what was never meant to sleep.
Not when they awaken
what was never meant to sleep.
