A Subtle Awakening

There was no epiphany, 
No sparks, no flash, 
No rockets red glare 
When first our eyes became intertwined. 
It was simply a knowing 
As if the ages had once again
Caused our paths to cross 
And something inside had 
Awakened once more as it had 
A hundred times before.

We were no strangers, 
No earth-bound souls 
Searching, struggling into the light. 
Just kindred spirits 
Strolling the cycle 
Finding each other again and again, 
Knowing that even the 
Reaper who parts us 
Will see us united 
As eons progress.
