Waiting

We're not through
This Lifetime yet,
With each other-

And yet we wait,
With bated breath,
In the warm anticipation
Of joining, again,
In the next!

The best part of all!

Though a few might ask:
Not again?

Wont you get
Too satiated?
Wouldn't you be bored?
You'd want the
Excitement of uncertainty,
Surely?

But how do we
Tell them:
(Will never convince them, though!)
Some bonds are just so-

Each lifetime,
The first, together!

Each moment,
Like the first one,
When we knew!

And always,
The Gladness,
The filling peace inside
Of the knowledge
That the wait
Will end thus:

With the Union
Of Us.
