my soul
vibrates with
another
unknown yet so known
timeless, ageless
with my every heartbeat
beats one more
in unison with mine
thoughts travel
in unison
in and out
from one mind
to the other
every pain that reflects
in that body
reflects in mine
where is this heart
that i can’t touch
but feel in mine
unseen, so near
yet so far
my soul
entwined with another
loving beyond despair
unexplained, impossible
every sinew aware
of my soulmate
fear of loss
stalks me
breaking in sweat and tears
fear of time
makes my heart pound
will we never meet
why can’t i be a friend
time stops me
cross that i bear
fear swirls around
engulfing my being
unfathomed quiet
presence that pulsates
blanking my thoughts
unbearable throbbing
my vision clouds
i realise
i cease to live
as life
lifts my soulmate
into another world
that i can’t fathom
leaving me
powerless, blinded
motionless
leaving me
crying in the shadows
incomplete forever
as i cease to live
