My Soul Friend

Moments. I see pictures.
I can see the real you. 
a brief recognition
how does my spirit know you? 

It feels so loud inside.
my heart cries out a song
I just want it to pass
your image is too strong.

I don't know what it means
I just know it's real.
So where do I put it? 
I want to know how you feel

Each day spent without you
is spent in the 7th circle of hell
I'm standing robeless. Exposed.
and I'm so afraid to tell.

I've lost it all. It's nothing.
Our kinship has been broken.
The world has lost it's color.
And I just wanted you to open.
