Yours was the face, the last
piece of a jigsaw
a gap filled, to quell
a nagging disquiet
that reigned my spirit in
but I knew you would come
to fill that gap
so that blood could flow with a joy.
And in the strange recognition
there was no need of words
thoughts already sensed
a dream recommenced.
Call me a fool if you must
but in that face I trust.

An idea that is probably widely felt, but somewhat hard to relate. There are times it's true..the recognition we feel for a "stranger" is inexplicable..but, I believe these "connections" to be no less manifest than some others that have been somewhat developed in the physical. I realize that it sounds all terribly esoteric, but that seems to be the crux of the possible rejection in the final stanza.

Thanks for your considered thoughts elP. In this area it is hard to define senses and feelings in any cogent way. I think a sense of shared identity might be close to what I'm implying, however that remains just an intuitive point. Can trust really be trusted ? Only again intuitively; my word "face" really should be a whole person with all they represent. One thought is one can recognize oneself in a person subconsciously and identify with it. An ocean of thoughts !
Appreciate your attention. Ray
