Ecstasy

Ecstasy

There was a time

When I was depressed

Life had no point

And love was all but hopeless.

I spoke to someone

Who had knowledge

Of the broken promises

That lovers make.

We connected and made a pact

That coffee is a healing force

Cappachino and black coffee

Heals hurt and loneliness.

Understanding and compassion needs one another

For without it we are totally alone

People connect in the most difficult times

To soothe and caress feelings of insecurity.

We are human beings with feelings

Love is our connection

Lovers find comfort in trust

And parents find unconditional love in offspring.

We need someone to care for

And someone to care in return

For without it

We are lost in a vacuum of insincerity.

I need someone to care

I need someone to love

I need someone to care for me

And I need someone to love me.

This is how I want to live

Material values are luxurys

To provide a fleeting extasy

of good sense.

But love if true provides

A lifetime of feelings

Butterflies and heartburn

Make eye contact God's mirror into the soul.
