No More Impulsive Me

So I am writing this with hopes that you will be reading it
I know you say that emails and text messages convey limited emotions
And I agree
But I am in love with words
I love their beauty and power
They are liberating and they are endless
With everything I write I long to capture the essence of my feelings
Sometimes I feel limited in the scope of my vocabulary
That feeling just impels me to write more
Caught in the frenzy of thoughts I am completely wandering off course
You called me tonight
As your name appeared on my caller ID my heart became full and calm all at once
Filled with relief just to hear your voice
You tell a story and I want to take it all in
Just the way you perceive things in life puts a smile in my heart
How do I describe this intense emotion that’s pounding through my being?
My body is so full of it I feel I must be radiant with energy
I keep reflecting on the time we spent together
The way you fit right in
The way we shared laughter
How you knew when and how to intervene
Your deep insight and reflections
Timing has been a key component for us
From conception to the present
I don’t know if anyone will understand that like you do
We didn’t know that in the beginning
However we both see it now
Even in the distance between us, or maybe especially in the distance between us
And I wonder now why I didn’t see this sooner
But there fits in the timing again
I suppose it was only just now the time and place for it
What beauty will time reveal to us next?
That question will be teaching me much about patience
