Souls Intertwined

My soul called to you,
   leaving its intent
in the wind
   to find you
on your heather enshrouded isle.

My soul screamed for you
and over you came,
   grabbing hold of it
and smoothing it’s scars.

My soul cried for you
   but….
      now….
   it just craves more.

My soul was dying without you,
   now I’m complete,
      being comforted
         but still desiring your touch.

My soul was rotting without you,
   you cut away the infection
      and every night 
I feel your presence
         in my arms.

My soul still hunts
   but only for words
to engrave on the moon,
   filled with my love for you.

My soul is now complete,
for I’ve found you
   and I’ll wait
to have your head resting
upon my chest every night.

My soul still howls for you
and you’ve answered.
The moon rises
by our connection
   and I hear you
      call me in the night.
