You are my soul mate, free from all despair.
Draped in love, you slumber without care.
You dream of me.
Of stolen hearts and celebrated bliss,
Captured on the wings of our first kiss.
I dream of you.
Fresh desire wound tight with pure devotion.
Delivered by your touch and raw emotion.
I am your soul mate, caught in timeless grace.
Unbidden tears fall fast with each embrace.
I hold the key
To passion’s garden laced with threads of gold.
With trust the veils of mystery will unfold.
You hold the key
To sheer delight, sweet torment when I feel
Your strength, your warmth, your kindness is for real.
We are soul mates; my demons live in fear
Of what the future holds, nothing is clear.
We move as one.
With breathless ease we walk this path again.
A medley of lost love’s own sweet refrain.
We sleep as one.
And in your arms I know I will forget.
This lifetime will be spared of all regret.
beautiful poem
the ending took me away,
we sleep as one
and in your arms I know I will forget
this lifetime will be spared of all regrets
so beautiful, i long for this :) thanks for sharing it with us!
A Beautiful Piece
The only thing I would change if I were the writer, just to make it more realistic (and at least a bit less idealistic): instead of “all regret” (at the end), it could be something like “much regret” or “most regret” or … ?
Just a thought that maybe shouldn’t be taken very seriously.
Love your works,
Chuck
Thanks Chuck
for the constructive suggestion! As always very much appreciated!

Very good, I love it!
Great poem purple. I was very enjoyable to read. I look forward to the title change.
Love and passion felt
Hi Purple
I loved this, and could feel the raw passion and love you have for this person in each line you wrote. Thanks for sharing this with us… to me personally the title works for this piece. :-)
Thanks again
Kind regards

Mistakes happen, do not dwell on them, live them, mourn them and move on to better things. (PS: if that does not work eat lots and lots of chocolate)
Guess I'm Gonna have to come clean here lol
Thanks everyone for your comments - I think I will stick with the title as I can’t think of anything more appropriate.
Ok - time to come clean!! I don’t have a soul mate - been chasing rainbows recently (note the subtle plug for another poem in the list lol) and am very happily single. BUT I am thrilled the poem came across so well and the passion and love flowed through. This isn’t directed at anyone in particular.I tried to imagine how it would feel if/when I do meet my soul mate, if they exist. Wishful thinking? Maybe! Lets just say I was having a mushy day when I wrote this! 8)
Thank you all very much for your feedback as always its very very much appreciated!
Hi Doll !
I like your poetry very much. Your passion to see what you want is clear. I am also happy for you that you are happy with the way things are for now.
Joy and Peace

I thought so, it sounds more
I thought so, it sounds more like an ideal, a dream rather than an actual someone, I got some same comments on one of my poems, the term used was “missingness”, but it is still fun to challenge yourself, being mushy suits you, nice read
nice to read
Friend,
nice and excellent piece .One more word to add is superub
Thanks Damon
for trawling back to read this. Very much appreciated my friend. I am glad you like it :-). Soul Mate was published in a book called Drops of Poetry at the end of 2007 - I am still dancing about that one. Thanks again

It’s impossible to smile on the outside without feeling better on the inside.
