Reverb

I heard you, 
as an echo..
and yet, 
I was so unaware of it.

An echo, 
in the still darkness.

I hear a beating.
Of your heart,
as unsure as my own.

Still,
Beating,
my own heart is so very 
hollow
 and it feels so cold.. 

Yet, you warm me. 
and I am not sore afraid.

You are
that indian on the plane.

Handsome and lonesome. 

A lone wolf. 
and I can envy you.

A Necessity.

That echo in the wind 
and an old whisper in a song..
The kind that I've known for years.

I can hear you
Speaking
and feeling,
Me.

You are
the echo of my own words
reflecting upon me,
and yet, 
I was so unaware.
Of
My own reflection,
if you will.
I am
cast before my own eyes.
 
As a mirror.
and you can finish my phrases.
and I can finish yours. 

I heard you in my heart
before you ever spoke your part.

What am I to do??
I feel I don't yet know you.
