Dear Soulmate

Dear soulmate, where are you?

When the lights dim and the night is cold, where are your arms? I want to hear your breathing and hold your hand. I want soft and loving touches.

When the sun is bright, the day is new, where do I find you? I have so much to tell you. The things that have happened and last nights dream, it's all bursting to be free. I need someone to listen.

When the wind howls, while the rain falls, where are your words? Your secrets and wishes and regrets are safe with me. I want to hear your voice.

When everything is made of pain, when existing is torture, where are your hands? To stroke my hair or turn the pages of your book. Your company would be nice, just your proximity. I need to be comforted.

When the days rush past, blurring and melding, what's on you schedule? Let's set a date for coffee and slow down a bit. I want to notice every day with you.

When life is good, when everything is golden, where is your laughter? Share your joy with me, we'll make it last. The beauty of now to temper old hurts. I need to know you're happy.

Dear soulmate...
