UnBidden

 
there is a place in my soul reserved only for you
a coveted place that remained empty year after year
my sacredness kept chaste of vision
my vulnerabilty kept hidden
then you came one day unbidden

I think you knew right away it was special
a place only you fit so perfect
masochistic I was shocked by your presence
I'd been calling to you thinkig no one was listening

my pleas to the unknown had gone unanswered
until you took your place in my heart
regarding me from afar, so beautiful

I felt your presence like a comforting warmth
sometimes I would just come to sit with you
not saying a word

I felt you deep within me
talking to my soul filling the void
nothing needed to be said
you were there and that was enough

when you told me you love me
honestly I was surprised that my affections were returned
stoic beauty, masulinity defined

my soul no longer stalks the shadows
where no love can be found
you are the Master I was looking for
