Love Poem: Found

Found

My feet have grown weary from traveling a great distance
A mile worth walked when one has discovered a love that posses such 
consistence
Or maybe a touch that is so tender down to the last texture
I was ready to end this search but my heart wasn't ready for closure
Now I take quick glances at the many places I abandon
And thank the heavens above that I'm still standing
Still strong yet after enduring such suffering from the past 
Present emotions stay content hoping that they will last
Welcomed with open arms but pulled back by distractions
Wondering to myself how will the world respond to my actions
One hand on the door while the other caresses soft flesh
The air outside is cool but I never felt a breeze so fresh
Or even a desire so strong, holding my feet in place
And a passion inside me that made continue this chase
Undescribable feelings only can be distinguished as being divine
Now I take that lost hand and claim what's mine
